  Many new branches and bad Travis runs.

Which new branches, and...

...which attachments?  (I don't know whether tcpdump-workers always rejects 
attachments or only sometimes rejects them, but people have had problems with 
them.)

They are here : https://gist.github.com/fxlb/10525029

Which new branches,
If the Travis errors that showed up a while ago in my mailbox are examples of 
the bad Travis runs, then the branches to which they refer appear to reflect 
branches in the bpf.tcpdump.org repository, at least for tcpdump.  Those 
repositories get pushed, in some fashion, to the GitHub repository (Nightly?  
Periodically with some other period?  Automatically when changes get pushed to 
the bpf.tcpdump.org repository?  Other?); if that results in the GitHub 
repositories having the same branches as the bpf.tcpdump.org repositories, that 
might explain the many new branches.

Just suprising to see e.g. 4 branches -> 21 branches in one shot...
Thanks for explaining, I see now.
