I had imagined it was to prevent accidental checking out of an upstream-tracking branch. Also; I don't think "not cluttering the namespace" is the same as "not showing multiple namespaces". The local namespace remains as uncluttered as it ever was. This is a question of what to display. Assuming my "mixed mode" display thing were in place, doesn't that make the two choices of UI 1) git-branch : show local branches git-branch --all : show local and remote branches git-branch -r : show remote branches 2) git-branch : show local and remote branches git-branch --local : show local branches git-branch -r : show remote branches In case 2) the switch is simply selecting a filter, and so fits in with the "-r" better.
