Our primary branch "main" now has parent "main_old"
As background we are new to Neon. We have several projects (development, staging, production) and in each project we have several branches. We just noticed that for development project the "main" branch which is marked "primary" now has a parent branch named "main_old_2024-04-29T21:29:39.677Z". I am trying to understand what created this "main_old" branch and if it is a side-effect of the way we are using Neon.
Notes:
1. We currently have 23 branches
2. We create a branch for each PR that is opened and then remove the branch when the PR is closed.
3. We create a branch for each developer to be used for local development, these are long lived branches
