This is a reminder for those of us that might wish to create new branches.
A couple days ago, a bunch of JIRA issues received a bot comment to
indicate that the JIRA issue in question has a commit on a new branch
"add-pki-caching" (hello Sanjay!).  These are annoying/unwelcome comments
spamming JIRA and issues list.  The trick/secret is to name the branch
prefixed with "solr", and then it won't happen.  I'll follow up with ASF
Infra to get more info on this... the underlying configuration appears to
have moved and we'd like another pattern nowadays anyway.
