Yes, that's where we disagree. I don't see these additional commits as
good enough reason to drown people in branching mania. Unless someone
develops new nifty feature or particularly tough bug, he shouldn't
recognize there is some difference between svn and git.
You seem to have an aversion to branches, while I can't work without
them anymore.
There is a difference between (a) using branches for work (implementing
stuff, checking out other people's work etc) and (b) having branches in
the main repo. (a) does not imply (b).
(a) does not imply (b), but both (a) and (b) imply "branching mania".
So, given (a), "branching mania" can't be a reason to refuse (b).
