Ok, I can live with that (I don't intend to make use of force-pushing,
anyway, and may just switch to a different prefix, where appropriate).

However, I'd certainly welcome a feature to have commit notifications
on non-"work" branches (without merge requests). In RKWard we used to
have commit notifications going to a dedicated mailing list
(rkward-tracker) that also receives build failure notifications and
such, for a single point to subscribe to "all the noise" for the
project. IIRC, that notification mechanism was set up for us by
sysadmin, not by self-service.

Not exactly a high-priority thing, but I for one would welcome this
feature.

Regards
Thomas
