@tenderlove You type while switching? I use vscode, zsh, and gitx. vscode and zsh both do autocompletion - so I just type the important part of the branch name and they fill the rest. GitX is just clicky clicky. So when I name it's "something_about_the_foo_model". Then when I check out it's just "foo" and autocomplete. Bonus: I then often see if someone else is working on foo - if they named their branches well.
