Yes, that's probably not the way I'd have done it.  As a rule, I leave
HEAD == latest version at all times (even after a .0 release), and only
branch the old version when I want to start making changes toward a new
version (that won't be included in the stable release).

Then again, given my, uh, minimal contributions lately, what I think may
not be relevant. (:
