Short story:
* pull requests for `master` are for bugfixes to current release
* pull requests for `develop` are for major features in future release
* 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 0.2 should go to the `0.2.x` branch.)
Longer story:
In general, our git branching scheme looks like the following.
* `master` always points to the latest major release, plus bugfixes
* `develop` always points to development for the next major release
* major releases are found in their own branches:
* `master` 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:
* `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 are submitting a patch for a 0.2 release, apply your pull request
to the `master` branch. Once patches are tested and gathered into a new
bugfix release, it will be merged into the `0.2.x` branch by a
maintainer.
If you are helping develop the next release, apply your pull requests
to the `develop` branch instead.
We reserve the right to decline a pull request if it is not for
the appropriate branch. For example, major new features shouldn't
be applied to the `master` branch, and will be rejected.
