Mario, We have implemented a new release process in v3.1. The plan is to
maintain a separate branch for every release of x265.  All the bug fixes
specific to release "X.X" will be pushed to "Release_X.X" with a tag
"X.X.X" and the fix will be grafted to all the succeeding release branches
as well into default. This way the integrating application will have the
freedom to pick whichever version of x265 it wants as all the bug fixes
specific to that version will be available in the release branch unlike
earlier where all the bug fixes go into the tip of stable and the user is
forced to use the recent release of x265.

Stable will get periodic merges from default and once an ample amount of
work goes into stable we'll create a new release branch and tag the new
version.
