Branching Guide
===============
We will have the following branches in the corefx repository:
* **master**
* Where most development happens
* Submit your PRs here unless you are adding API to a type that exists in the full .NET Framework
* **release/[name]**
* Release branches snapped from master.
* Do not submit pull requests to these branches
* Fixes here do not flow to follow-up releases
* Generally, fixes after a snap needing to make it in to a release will go in to master and get cherry-picked to the release branch.
* **dev/[name]**
* Features (aka topics) under active development by more than one developer.
* Submit PRs here only if you've made prior arrangements to work on something in one of these branches.
* It is up to the developers creating these branches to decide what level of review is required
* These features will only ship if they are successfully pulled to master or future via the standard PR and API review process.
