I guess, EPEL is just an example for a "new branch" to create?

We also have cases were packages only exists in newer Fedoras (eg. rawhide only), until someone comes along and asks for branches to be created in older Fedoras.

* cvsadmin approves the creation of the new branch in pkgdb
      => branch creation broadcasted on fedmsg
* git adjusted automatically
What does this sentence mean? Create an empty branch or even to populate it from some other branch?

I don't think, the later is applicable, because e.g. rawhide packages often aren't applicable on older EPELs, while branches based on older versions are.
