Exactly my development motto.
Especially useful in periods with much change, but on the other hand, we
didn't have so much change like now at once at any time in the project,
~ because most of the time we were only 2 or maybe 3 more or less active
developers, now we have more devs that are actively coding on the
client, which might necessitate a "head" branch of the client, so we can
better test different approaches / philosophies about the client future.
