Matthias Pohl commented on FLINK-30869:
---------------------------------------
* {{FLINK-30191}} was probably accidentally created. I reached out to the
contributor in the ticket.
* {{master}} is needed for obvious reasons
* {{exp_github_actions}}, {{experiment_gha_docs}} is used for the Github
Actions migrations work (see related [ML
thread|https://lists.apache.org/thread/cvqh07m7b45mzk0pyj9t1yv9m04wkrff] where
Chesnay stated that those shouldn't be deleted).
* {{blink}} contains legacy code from blink. It was requested to keep this code
for historical reasons (see related [ML
thread|https://lists.apache.org/thread/cvqh07m7b45mzk0pyj9t1yv9m04wkrff] with
Yun Tang's post.
* {{dependabot/*}} are temporary branches that are created by dependabot for
dependency version updates.
