Shouldn't distros get their stuff from stable tags, such as 0.9.15.1?
The "stable" branch would point to the latest one; 0.9.15.5, or
whatever.

And of course you can always create a branch for an older stable
release if you want:
git checkout -b 0.9.14-stable 0.9.14.3

But it doesn't need to be on the main repo.
