[Scummvm-devel] Towards a new release branch model

[Eugene Sandulenko]

Hi Max et al,

First, I think this is really has to be addressed and I wish we had this discussion before the release.

First, I completely agree that we must not use 1-x-0 branches, my personal preference is branch-1-4 out of which we produce 1.4.0 and 1.4.1 if needed.

Second, albeit git model is the proper way of developing under DVCS, still in my opinion is too much. After all there ate 50+ devx to learn it. So I would recommend to go with nuvie model and perhaps in some distant future try to use git one, especially if we encourage use of personal forks and pull requests.

So, it would be nice if we had this workflow documented as a command sequence and have if put on our wiki.
