How we use Git

Sorry about the confusion. The title, you know.

Otherwise, makes sense, Gerv. I don't know that there is a good reason to
have a Tag in that case. Your -stable branch appears to do what is needed
for it, and the Tag is a bit redundant.

Hi Randall,

I think there's a wire crossed here. We are looking for the git commands for
administrators to use to obtain a copy of Bugzilla for their server, and
perhaps upgrade it. Developers would use different commands.

No - that's the branch simply called "X.X". The release-X.X-stable branch
would stick at the point where the last release was made, and then jump
forward to the next release point all in one go. This would mean that people
tracking it would have the exact code which went into one of our point
releases, rather than some hybrid in between.

So developers would use the "X.X" branch, and admins would use the
"release-X.X-stable" branch.
