I would prefer not to do it. It will clutter list of branches which we currently
reserve for major stuff like "2.4.x" (eg imagine listing in our git web services)
and probably also unnecessarily increase size of the whole repo which is slowly
approaching 1GB already (not trying to save disk space but rather download bandwidth).
