yay! are you also proposing some git tools to deal with these? it would be great to have some version control (keep these like generation files so we can see the history of revisions).

I'm not proposing any new tools, just a convention that existing tools or tools that others may create can adopt to provide information to a repositories users. Some existing tools that could use the annotations are:
        git-branch
        git-show-branch
        gitweb
There are likely others.

Like any other file under $GIT_DIR, these files are not automatically versioned. Rather, each repository maintainer, needs to decide how a repository's meta-data (project meta-meta-data) is tracked or generated.
