Hi Richard,

> Don't we have a branching script that automates all this?

A script no.  A README file yes.

I did originally try making a script.  But I found that there
were too many special cases and exceptions where human intervention
was needed, so in the end I decided to just go through with
creating a simple README file outlining the steps to follow.  Of
course this does also leave room for human error ...

Cheers
