- jfkebwjsbx 6y agoReleases are created off the master. Only if something is supported for long a branch is created where only fixes are backported, no development happens there. What the GP suggested I assume is one master-like branch for every deployed version. Otherwise it makes no sense.
- Phlogistique 6y agoThe point remains. The Linux branching workflow is vastly more complicated than what GP advocates.
