You can recreate any branch at any time.

Nothing will be deleted at all. Branches that are dead or unused will be tagged and the branch will be removed. Note: In git a branch is a reference to a commit. Same for tags. The difference: A branch is moving (updated with each commit, thus tracking work-in-progress) and a tag is static. No repo, commit or line of code will be deleted. Just some branches are switched to tags. And if you need to work on such a tagged tree again in the future, you can recreate the branch anytime to indicate that there is work going on in this tree. > For our assurances, you will be tagging the branch head prior to any branch > deletion. Is this correct? That is what all this is about. Its about to create tags. Ciao, Daniel -- J.
