I agree it's not convenient to have several branches and merge them
frequently.  IMHO the only good reason to keep a separate branch is that
'make web' could fail because of doc commits (1), but I assume you
always 'make web' before pushing to git.sv.gnu.org ;-), and you pointed
out good reasons to merge gdp into master and delete gdp, so let's do
it!  I prefer to do it tomorrow though, as I haven't enough time to make
and make web tonight.

(1) That's why I commit translations and hack buildscripts on
lilypond/translation.

Cheers,
John
