At @work we use something like this. We have three branches:

- trunk (aka master, but it started as a git-svn branch long ago...)
- release
- maint

Our maint merges to both trunk and release, via an automated process
except when a conflict requires human intervention.

Occasionally someone will put something on trunk by accident that
should've gone to maint. We revert it from trunk, cherry-pick to
maint, and let it merge back down.

(Aside, I've found hudson^wjenkins to be great for misc jobs like this
and prefer it to cron these days for non-sytem-related periodic
events.)
