I use the initial repository

        jsource 692 > git remote -v
        origin  [email protected]:jsource (fetch)
        origin  [email protected]:jsource (push)

and I still pull from that.  Only some time after the initial JPD/JCD
announcement, http://code.jsoftware.com/wiki/Git started to refer to

        https://github.com/jsoftware/jsource

as an additional read-only mirror.

Which one is "the remote repo"?


Regarding deleting a branch:

It is absolutely OK to remove branches created to deal with
specific bugs, once the work is done and integrated.
(Example: the origin/Edotnonchar mini branch.)

Is the larger work on the "parser" really, really closed, though?
In the sense of:  "it passes the entire test suite;  it has no (known)
memory leaks anymore;" etc.  Henry?

As long as a topic branch exists, further fixes/improvements specific
to these features can be maintained.  It also remains possible to revert
to a version without the branch feature.

Much more than a merging a topic branch, deleting it expresses "this
is now part of the master branch and will always be."
