Makes sense.
Well, I think that all public branches should follow the trunk model - if only
to make merging a dev branch to trunk possible without introducing messy
history.
All shared branches, yes, but I think personal branches can be more
volatile.
Can we limit the namespace one can create branches in? Like force all
branches created by $user to be in namespace $user?
So require some super-powers to create a toplevel branch?
We can.
And make [user branches] not automatically pulled?
We can't control what 'git clone' pulls by default. People can clone
with --single-branch to get just the trunk and then adjust what else
gets pulled, but I think it will make most sense for most people to pull
everything.
