bugfix-WIP has been fast forward merged into master and then deleted.
this combination may lead to confusion indeed, if you're not fast
enough.

one of these should improve the situation, and should be applied to
branches that have been mentioned on this list (next time).

1) branches remain alive after merge.
2) merge branches with --no-ff and fill in a message.

i think 2) is better and sufficient.

was deleted.
