I would prefer some clearer/unambiguous way to refer to the approaches above. To me:

  • not using user branches is clearer than
  • the dependency notes approach.

Primarily because we have a dedicated paragraph on user branches. But that might simply be my bias. If you like dependency notes then I suggest:

  • dependency notes -> "dependency note" (use quotes to signal that it's some "custom" thing defined in this document + use singular as we are only asking for one note in the 2nd paragraph above).

Hope this makes sense :)
