Comment #2 on issue 954 by percival.music.ca: GUB add temporary patch to  
lilypond

Hmm.  We just finished fixing GUB to work with building from branches, so  
this idea
definitely has appeal.  Also, if we do this, then the branch-specific  
builds will get
used+tested all the time, so we'll notice much sooner if it breaks again.

Plus, this would let translators update news-front before we make the  
release.  I
can't see anybody caring for 2.13.10, but I'm sure they'd like to do that  
for 2.14.0.


Ok, I'll go with this.  At the moment, I'm envisioning a release/unstable  
branch;
just before I want to make a release, I'll pull everything from master into  
it.  I
can add the news item and update the VERSION, do the gub stuff, then  
cherry-pick
those commits back into master.  Is that what you had in mind?
