GenericSetup is also in the repository and has no release branches at all.

Anyway. While I don't like the overall branching policy, keeping 
branching policies in sync is a good argument for doing some extra work.

I still don't understand what's the advantage of starting the branch at 
the released version instead of the latest version. But since you 
volunteered to do the extra work I can live with the extra noise that makes.


I'll shut up now.
