[Springframework-developer] 1.2 maintenance branch

[Juergen H. <ju...@in...>]

Developers,

I intend to create a Spring 1.2 maintenance branch now that 1.2.5 has been
released. Not a problem per se, but I'm wondering about the branch name :-)

We have "release-1-2-5" style as tag names, so what could we use as
maintenance branch name? "maintenance-1-2"? "1-2-maintenance"? Any
suggestions?

My convention when making a branch is to use the same basic name as the 
release, i.e.
R_1-2-5
becomes
B_1-2-5
where you then might have a release
R_1-2-5-1
coming off it later.

But I guess in this case any release is going to be 1.2.6.

So I would probably call it branch-1-2. I do like to call branches as 
branches, since they have to be treated differently than normal tags.
