Hein?

And if it took you 10 years or so, ultimately this only gets you more fine grained release cycles, ie. you develop it in 7months, move it to master and then have to wait only 2 months until it gets released instead of 5.

If you dump a half broken todo list into master, hoping you'll be able to "fix" it before the next release "you're holding it wrongly" in the first place, see the message about "ppl. using master on a regular base".


The feature btw. still has bugs. I'm dead sure about that.
That's not the definition of the feature freeze.

The question is: had you added a usable feature before the freeze and 2 days ago fixed a nullptr resolution or similar (bugfix) or was the feature more or less unusable until to days ago (then you technically broke the feature freeze - don't let Albert know in case ;-)
