I found (and somewhat adapted) a script that can delete all topic/
branches that have been fully merged into master, and I'm planing to
run that from time to time so that we don't end up with tons of dead
branches. [1]
For the first run, however, I'd like to double-check that it would be
doing the right thing. Below is the list of deletes, please shout if
there's any branch in there that you do \*not\* want to be deleted.

[1] We could create a naming convention for branches that should stay
around if even fully merged if you guys think that makes sense.

Ok, I threatened deleting tons of branches but never followed through.
But now for real: below's an updated list and I'll be deleting these
soon if nobody complains.
