It’s confusing indeed, I think it’s a mistake that has yet to be fixed.
Basically what we do now is that we use a different ‘repo_name’ when we
just want to add a branch…

We should fix it at some point.  Suggestions welcome!

I would encourage you to write commits in a way to minimize friction
when we are to merge them—that is, following the conventions that
Ricardo outlined.  That way Mathieu, Ricardo, or myself can take a look
and quickly cherry-pick to master.

Anyway, kudos on what you’ve already achieved!  Getting started on an
existing code base is never easy, so I think you’ve done a good job.

Thank you,
Ludo’.
