Really?  It's perfectly reasonable for custodians to have multiple
branches and to request for you to pull from a specific one.  This
becomes especially true with the adoption of the merge window process.
 For instance, I have two branches on the 5xxx tree; one for bugfixes
to be merged immediately and another for stuff queued up for the next
window.

Besides, when someone uses git-request-pull (like Michal did) it's a
pretty trivial cut/paste to use git-pull to bring it into your branch.
 It's not like it causes you extra work.  :-)

Cheers,
g.
