Not necessarily: the new version of the package is published when the
version header value is increased. So you can also push development
changes to GNU ELPA, then after some time increase the version number,
and only then the new version will be published.

Personally, I use `git subtree merge'. IIRC, Stefan usually does `git merge
--strategy=subtree` instead.
