Deleting branch LOG4J2-89

I merged branch LOG4J2-89 and then tried to delete the branch. It appears deleting branches is no longer allowed. I suspect that also means I won’t be able to delete a tag if a release fails.  I recall seeing a discussion on one of the mailing lists (board?) about this.

If this is the case then I may have to resort to doing any work on feature branches at github. I think I can specify a tag for the release process so each release will probably be tagged as rc1, rc2, etc and the last one will be the actual release tag.

I agree that it is annoying with many old branches around.

They actually do get annoying when you are trying to switch branches in IntelliJ. You have to select from a list. Right now we only have about 20 so it isn’t a huge issue.

Isn't this (deleting branches is disallowed) just a temporary measure?
Is there any urgent need to change our workflow because of this? Old branches don't get in my way, I don't mind if there are many of them.

For me, keeping tags of failed RC is a good thing.
