Logically, those are not "branches"; they are now part of mainline. So it would be more correct to say :
I don't quite follow your reasoning here. Even if they got merged later on, those are still "branches of development".

You'd only save sync'ing 'new' development branches.Which is a good thing.
Really? If I'm interested enough in a project to want to fetch it's development history (!), I'm at least as interested in all current branches, as I am interested in history. I've never taken the effort to strip away branches I might not be interested in (heck, how should I even know?).
But that's just me. Let's hear other people's preferences here! Regards Markus
