For those of you using git, I wanted to point out that it is fairly easy

my github repository using:

        $ git branch -d :branch_name

I don't believe that is revertable.  What is scarey is that this could
be done on our 'origin' as well.


The ability to remove branches is a feature. I strongly encourage you to create topic branches for development work, then merge them onto the main branch, and then delete them. I almost never work directly on, say, REL9_0_STABLE or master, except for quite trivial changes.

I thought we had some hooks on gitmaster to help prevent accidents like inadvertent branch deletion.

I at least still keep rolling backups of the main repo. I'm sure I'm not alone.
