The main issue that is solve by this, is that you don't get updated, because stable/next/master moved on. Now you need to change the release explicitly.
Also I tried to freeze all external dependencies. The only ones not being frozen are the ruby ones. Is there a way to specify, which versions of the gems get installed ? I don't see why you can't mix devel with release code. You just set the override for the branch to whatever you want, done.
