Sometimes, besides the name of the branch, it could be useful to have a short description of a branch which quickly reminds me what that branch is intended for. Currently I see no way in git to achieve this (there's a description for a repository, but not for individual branches). Any opinions on this? Thanks in advance, -- Rotem
