## Building

## Branches
- `master` is the main branch containing good code that will end up in
the next release. You should base your work on it. It won't ever be
rebased or force-pushed to.
- `vx.y` branches exist to make patch releases on otherwise obsolete
minor releases. Should only contain fixes cherry picked from master.
Don't base any work on them.
- Other branches are probably topic branches and may be subject to
rebasing. Don't base any work on them unless you specifically know
otherwise.
