For mos of the JIRAs one person is mainly in charge of the patch. For large JIRAs that would need multiple sub-tickets we can just assign different people on sub-tasks.
That said, I think it makes sense to create branch when the development period would take long (> 1 month, say), and hence consecutive pulling and rebasing would become a burden..
