Let’s say I keep only working tested code in trunk. Each iteration is done in a separate branch.

When the iteration is over I merge the changes back into trunk.

What should I do then?

Today I kill the dev branch, create a tag of the trunk at that given moment of release. Then my idea is to create a branch of that tag if a patch is needed while the next iteration is underway.

Is it better to keep the development branch alive to apply future patches there? I don’t think I like that idea :).

    • You can have long-live branch (never closed) (ALL-TIME-DEVEL) and periodically merge it to trunk – this pattern will work
    • You can from other side have short-term branches in paradigm branch-per-task and after finishing task merge to trunk with –reintegrate (close branch practically and delete after it)

    Both workflows are not mutually exclusive and can co-exist: it’s your choice, how to work

    Your current workflow (stable trunk, move mayor releases into separate branches (for bugfix releases)) and mark every release with tag is perfectly viable
