This is why I name my local branch "XYZ". ;-)

XYZ may not be an appropriate name for the remote branch, or maybe the
remote repo is *not* under my direct control, e.g. a shared-master style

:munch: vt. [often confused with {mung}, q.v.] To transform information
   in a serial fashion, often requiring large amounts of computation. To
   trace down a data structure. Related to {crunch} and nearly synonymous
   with {grovel}, but connotes less pain.
