                a simple git branching model
              
          
    a simple git branching model (written in 2013)

This is a very simple git workflow. It (and variants) is in use by many people.
I settled on it after using it very effectively at Athena.
GitHub does something similar; Zach Holman mentioned  it
in this talk.
Update: Woah, thanks for all the attention. Didn't expect this simple rant
to get popular.
