Exactly. I'm more annoyed at the branches we have in the top-level and which I believe should be moved to old-branches (such as the test-concurrency one I queried about on this list recently, with no answer). But if someone's worried about its impact on the total size of a "git clone", we could move old-branches to another repository, tho I expect those branches use up a negligible amount of space. Stefan
