+1 Using separate branches in this manner just adds complexity. I was wondering myself why we needed to create separate branches when all we're doing is tagging/deleting the already released ones. The only difference between where one leaves off and another begins is the name of the branch. On

Another point to consider here is that many projects (such as guava) omit .0 suffixes on versions (releasing, for instance 11, followed by 11.0.1 and 11.0.2 for bugfixes). It's probably not a big deal. It's only a slight risk of confusion, and SCM is not for users, it's for devs, so I'm fine with
