You could argue that we should throw away branches in clones have all<br>
clones in a single branch - and change our workflow.<br>
<br>
But I think this will be too confusing to most of us [yeah you could<br>
change your bash prompt to always indicate wich branch you are on -<br>
wich is equivalent to 'cd different clone' - but not all of us are<br>
that sophisticated]<br>
