When I merge, I naturally keep the original developer's branch name in the log, hence my concerns about making it offline-intelligible. However, most of the time the branches are ultra-simple and I prefer to cherry-pick instead of merge, for purposes of having cleaner repo history. The developer's branch name does not get publicized in that case, only the ticket number. (Most of the branches are of ephemeral life anyway, after merge they go away, so their ephemeral name should matter mostly for the purposes of integration only.) Best regards -- Tibor Simko
