I understand. You could make it a clandestine operation, though. Just
push the branch shortly before Andreas' script runs (I guess it runs at
least daily at some fixed time), then pull the git repo and immediately
delete your remote branch afterwards. Of course, anyone who does a fetch
or push with '--all' in that window will have the branch (and could push
it again), but maybe you could live with that possibility.

I see no problem with that. Branches are cheap and can be deleted when
no longer needed. And AFAIK, git won't fetch or even show remote
branches unless you explicitly ask for it.

Well, to be absolutely sure that you can later merge it to the master
branch on Savannah, it should run through Andreas' script.
