Seems I slipped and missed a few others too.

Glen Choo: make create_branch accept any repository https://lore.kernel.org/git/20211111171643.13805-1-chooglen@google.com/

More cleanup of implicit the_repository, this time in create_branch().

Glen Choo: RFC: Branches with --recurse-submodules https://lore.kernel.org/git/kl6lv912uvjv.fsf%40chooglen-macbookpro.roam.corp.google.com

Some deeper discussion of branching strategy with regard to recursing into submodules. This would be a really good one to follow and weigh in on, because it is an unusual case where Git will need to be opinionated about workflow in order to be useful, so we'd better be sure our opinion is a good one.
