If you don't mind testing pre-releases (don't use in production!), we appreciate
continuous feedback on the `master` branch, which is our work toward the next
continuous feedback on the `unstable` branch, which is our work toward the next
major release. Please file bug reports, and tag the report with the "pre-release"
tag.

Short story:
* pull requests for `master` are for the next major release
* pull requests for a current release should go to appropriate release branch
(for example, bugfixes for 0.3 should go to the `0.3` branch.)
* pull requests for `unstable` are for the next major release
* pull requests for `stable` are for the current release
Longer story:
In general, our git branching scheme looks like the following.
* `master` always points to development for the next major release,
* `unstable` always points to development for the next major release,
major new features should go here
* current and past major releases are found in their own branches:
* `stable` always points to the latest stable release,
bugfixes and security patches should go here
* current and past major releases can also be found in their own branches:
* `0.3` is the branch for the 0.3 release and any bugfix releases
* `0.2.x` is the branch for the 0.2 release and any bugfix releases
* `0.1` is the branch for the legacy code; it is no longer supported
If you want to submit a specific patch for an older release,
you can put your pull request against that branch specifically.
However, we don't currently support any older release beyond
the latest release (currently 0.3).
We reserve the right to decline a pull request if it is not for
the appropriate branch.
