Brent Lintner commented on RIPPLE-84:
-------------------------------------

Hey [~busykai], thanks for pointing out the outdated docs. :-(

I believe this was something that happened out of simplicity, since, the `next` 
branch was technically a bit redundant (or superfluous), because releases are 
only made from master when a semvar version change happens, next to the fact 
that master is always (or should be) shippable, especially given the 
decentralized nature of contributions (i.e they happen in isolation to each 
other, and do not need an integration style branch).

That is just my thoughts and recollections.

IMO, I am thinking the README should be updated accordingly.

Thoughts?

> It seems that it was there at some point, some issues and PRs mention it, but

> P.S. Filing it as "Github integration" as it seems the most appropriate.
