There are two strategies for working with maintenance branches:
1) commit bug-fixes to maintenance, merge maintenance back into master as needed
2) commit bug-fixes to master, cherry-pick to maintenance, never merge
maintenance back into master

Which are we using? (I.e., which branch should bug-fix PRs be
submitted against?)
