Hmm.  I'd rather see the release done on HEAD; otherwise, there's work to 
be done to make HEAD current after the release, which seems error prone.

That presumes that most commits during a release process will be focused 
on the release, which seems sensible for me, but may not be right for 
everyone.

Perhaps a 'shared' branch could be formed for people who want to ignore 
the release and just keep working?
