Hmm, yes.  I think I'd want to rewind next after a while; the thought
of next drifting hundreds or thousands of commits away from master
just gives me the heebee-jeebies.  I'm sure it mostly works, but it
just feels wrong.  :-)

I guess I don't see why this would be a hardship; would a quick rebase
on the topic branches more or less take care of the problem?  

I guess that brings up another question; I've been regularly rebasing
the topics branches as master and next advances... probably more out
of superstition than anything else.  Is that a bad idea for any reason?


Hmm... I guess some of this would be really good to get into the Howto
section of the user guide when talking about git workflows!
