Release/2.7.x

Merge strategy wiki page is also out of date. According to it, master should point at the latest release version. But there is no master anymore.

It will be good to have rebased master branch and release/x.y.z as feature branch Why master branch discontinued?

phoerious commented 2 years ago

Because master is always stale and cannot be fast-forwarded if we continue to release patches for the current stable version. There will be a "latest" tag instead, but right now we don't have it, because it interferes with our build system.
