Dumb comment:
Although I know what issue HADOOP-3638 is referring to, it's not a
great way for the branch name to be self-descriptive. Seems like it'd
be a possible source of confusion (but, on the other hand, it gives
folks an unambiguous way to look up precisely what the branch is; it's
just I can see myself fat-fingering HADOOP-3838 instead of HADOOP-3638
and working on the wrong branch or something like that).

I thought you'd raise that right after I sent that last message. I
agree: there are tools out of our control that we'd like to use
(like git-svn & eclipse) that assume the branches directory has a
flat structure. So I'm +1 for a flat structure.
