We track four branches (information available from kde_projects.xml):
stable/kdelibs4
trunk/kdelibs4
stable/kf5
trunk/kf5

We don't use them directly, but we keep our metadata in sync with them. Yes,
that could be done in better way; but we can't consume the information
directly from projects.k.o because a wrong/outdated information leads to
wrongly tracked messages (and maintainer sometime forget to update them).
