@cindex wip branches
Sometimes, a branch may be a work in progress, for example for larger
efforts such as updating the GNOME desktop. In these cases, the branch
name should reflect this by having the @samp{wip-} prefix. The QA
infrastructure will avoid building work-in-progress branches, so that
the available resources can be better focused on building the branches
that are ready to be merged. When the branch is no longer a work in
progress, it should be renamed, with the @samp{wip-} prefix removed, and
only then should the merge requests be created, as documented earlier.
