How do you want to commit bugfix release (e.g. v2.29.2) to the
'master' if the master and 'stable/' branches contain a different
code? 

The current workflow:

 1) development (branch: <master>)

 2) master release (tags: v2.29-rc1, v2.29-rc2, v2.29, branch: <master>)

 3) development (work on v2.30, branch: <master>)

 4) fork -- create a new branch <stable/v2.29> based on tag v2.29

     4a) new patches or cherry-pick patches from <master> (branch: <stable/v2.29>)

     4b) stable release (tag: v2.29.1, branch: <stable/v2.29>)

     4c) another patches, another release (tag: v2.29.2, branch: <stable/v2.29>)

 5) master release v2.30 (branch: <master>)
    ...


where 3) and 4) happen in the same time.
