+1 for deleting it Whilst we're on the topic, could we delete the stale branches currently held on origin? Some are *very* out-of-date compared with master, see https://github.com/apache/qpid-proton/branches/stale Similarly, could we also delete the 0.1-0.9-alpha-1 version number branches? Unless we're backporting fixes, it probably doesn't make sense to have version branches. Currently we have identically named tags (although 0.9-alpha-1 is missing), and tags have the advantage of being immutable, whereas anyone could accidentally push to a version branch.
