I've followed some of the rationale between having different github repos, but not all of it. Couldn't the same thing be accomplished with a single repo and multiple branches, and just implementing different policies on the different branches? ie: master - experimental, unstable head - latest and greatest code master2-1 - 2.1 legacy master3-1 - 3.1 unstable Then do the exact same thing you do now for the 3 separate repos in terms of maintainance and patching and such. It really comes down to preference though and what people expect. Personally, I expect a single project to use a single repo with multiple maintanance branches and feature branches. It's weird and confusing to have to go to different repos depending on which release number I'm currently looking at. As described by Paul above, a developer can make their local git repo look like that, but if it's easier to have them all in a single git repo locally, wouldn't it be easier on github too?
