It would be nice if it was possible to set default settings for repositories in:
https://phab.met.no/applications/edit/PhabricatorDiffusionApplication/
It seems that 99% of the time, the settings are identical for each repository on the site, but when those "default" settings are not the same as the Phabricator defaults.
The use-case we have, for instance, is that we usually work with remote branches on Github. To avoid issues with autoclose, arcanist, etc.; these branches should not be cloned or autoclosed by Phabricator. However, to set this up, it is necessary to go into every repository and manually set this when creating the repository (or later). Apart from being tedious, that process is also error-prone.
Would be nice if the branches thing could be set in the application settings (though I suspect the use-case is general for a lot of the "advanced" settings).
