## Summary by CodeRabbit
* **Chores**
* Removed the Branching 2.0 preview and cleared its persisted preview
setting; branching UI and branch editing are now available without
opt‑in.
* Simplified branch management flows and empty states by removing
preview-dependent conditions and tooltips.
* Made GitHub branch sync optional in create/edit forms and simplified
validation and submit behavior.
* "Create merge request" and related branch actions now render
consistently across the UI.
