The repository is accumulating numerous branches that have already been merged and are no longer in use. This leads to increased complexity in managing the repository and slows down certain operations, such as
git clone
, whichfetches all branches
, including unused ones, unnecessarily increasing disk space usage and download times. I propose establishing a policy for the regular removal of obsolete branches and defining guidelines to prevent the accumulation of unnecessary branches in the future. Periodic branch cleanup will help keep the repository more streamlined and easier to manage.There are over
40 pages,
of which each page has20 branches
.https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/branches/all?page=40
Those that still appear to be active are about
163
, with active being about3 months
considered.https://github.com/zed-industries/zed/branches/active?page=9
