Dumb comment:

Not really

Although I know what issue HADOOP-3638 is referring to, it's not a great way for the branch name to be self-descriptive.

Actually, I find it much more natural to label branches with jira numbers than names. It might help if there is a HADOOP-*.readme at the top level that describes the branch in words.

good idea. I shall do that, then.
