I am doing both in my web SDK project.

I currently have two branches, master and maint/v1. Over time, if
necessary, I'll open new branches named maint/v2, maint/v3 etc.

New development happens on master, bugfixes go to maint/v1 and get
merged into master. If I do bugfix releases (2.0.x), I tag the tip of
the maint/v1 branch.

I need a full branch, because I need the ability to do bugfixes for the
already-released version.
