How cool would it be, though, if montone could have comments or
descriptions attached to branch labels and a command to list the
existing branch labels (and their comments/descriptions). That
would be kind of a table of content of a database. One could look
at this and understand better which branches exist and what's in
them. Is not this information best kept in the database? Isn't the
database the most natural place for this kind of thing? Why split
it away and keep it externally in some information board or so?
From the user's point of view, that would be very good because one
wouldn't have to run away and scout about in some information board.
FWIW git stores (non-versioned) branch descriptions in the repository
and these are extremely nice to have when setting up a gitweb server.
