> Emacs development appears to go along in a kind of unorthodox way. As someone familiar with git but unfamiliar with the Emacs dev workflow, my assumption was that anything in master is ready to ship out the door, with the bulk of commits happening on feature or hotfix branches. But it appears to work in the reverse, with everything going into master, and stable releases branching off, which seems like a good recipe for perpetual missing-of-boatsness. I remember when Emacs dev switched over to git there was a lot of confusion about how it works, so I think this is maybe the remnants of that.

It's not unusual that releases are created from a branch.  A lot of
projects work like that.

Andreas.
