If people don't mind, I'll probably start trying this for my own work,
except in reverse: I'll build the work in a branch
"1234-branch-name-wip" ("wip" is short for "work in progress," and
having it at the end of branch name is a convention in some git
workflows), then publish a rebased version in "1234-branch-name". And I
can report on how it goes after some experience with it.
