This has been in use for quite a while now - and I guess that's not likely to
change anytime soon.  Given that...having it be shared makes sense to me.

I think it'd be a good idea to create a README.md describing why the branches
exist.  Maybe each branch has a master list of outstanding PRs along with any
list of patches which are rejected upstream (are there any?)

Are the different branches rebased on any schedule, or just as needed?  Is there
anything right now monitoring upstream for commits that you use?
