I see these branches are documented: https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/internals/git/#feature-development-branches. In reading that I saw the mention about a grafts file. I don't entirely understand what that does but when I was reading about it, I saw "As of Git 1.6.5, the more flexible git replace <http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/git-replace.html> has been added." I don't know if that might allow deleting the branches? Anyway, if anyone wants to take some action here that's okay with me as I'm not really motivated to invest any more time than clicking "delete branch" which apparently isn't acceptable at this time.
