Depends on situation. If it's a quick stop then usually I'll just slow down and then clutch in and shift to neutral as the car stops. Then I shift into 1st. Sometimes this transition happens quickly, such as if it's red long enough that I'll be slowing to 5mph or less or it's red, then turns green right as I'm slowed to about 5mph. Just depends on the intersection, traffic, etc. If I'm slowing down to a red light that I know is about to change, or traffic is about to move, then yeah, I'll rev match downshift through the gears. I never really go into first in this case though, because my car's manual transmission is tuned such that you almost never need first except when you're going into motion from a complete stop; so I'd just downshift to 2nd or 3rd depending on the speed of traffic.
