Aha. I was part of a project where each dev had their own long running branch for non-specific work and this was the norm, but it always felt clunky. And often resulted in merge issues.

That is a very weird setup. I have no clue why that flow is needed in the first place. Branches should be something disposable easily. What was the logic behind the setup? Any idea?

Oh I know the reason, nobody knew git and had just worked alone before.
