For what I remember, the development of Emacs has been always so in the 
last 10 year, both with CVS, BAZAR and up to few months ago, with Git. I 
don't see any reason to change. I have built Emacs on Cygwin, GNU/Linux 
and OSX (and now MSYS2/MINGW64) for 8-9 years almost one or two times 
per week (and sometimes also more). It's only from some months that I 
build Emacs rarely.. master is always behind other branches and don't 
know project where master, trunk or whatever is called is behind other 
branches..
