MMM, the network overhead and capacity is (in all cases I've drilled into) equivalent with either implementation: We don't support server side commits (there is a separate bug for that) and thus users have to make a local branch to have an interestingly different branch.

That said, I'm totally happy with saying that a server side creation of the branch is a preferred solution because of how that fits in with other bugs. Doing so now.

Meta: If I hadn't rephrased the topic, we wouldn't have captured this, so I think it was still beneficial to do so :)
