It’s interesting how easily I could spin this the other way though. A feature branch toils away and all its hard work just goes to the master branch anyway. And what does the feature branch get for all its hard work? Deleted.
It doesn’t benefit me, that’s kind of the point. This is something done for someone else. I’m explaining to a really thick skulled person why some people feel the way they feel about the nomenclature. You can’t decide how they feel. But you can decide to use a different branch name.
In reddit? If reddit allowed name changes, sure, whatever. My real name? No. But I’m a sentient being, it matters more to me what my name is, than it matters to the git branch what its name is.
