Many of the fdo and kernel.org trees have such old branches. In git 
these are basically throwaway branches where features are developed. But 
once the branches are merged into master, they have no reason to exist 
anymore. Having them there just confuses people. Would you consider 
deleting some of the old branches?

For example, of the 70 branches in xf86-video-intel, 27 have already 
been merged with master (git branch -r --merged origin/master).
