Whats the best git branching setup for opensource/library?

[Dominaezzz]

I tend to use master, experiment in feature branches and then tag master for releases.

[ursus]

so no release branch?

Nahh, I don't bother. I tried that once but I ended up forgetting about the release branch for like a year anyway. So now I just tag the master branch. Should not that this was an individual project. (Your tools might end up deciding for you.... if you're unlucky...ish... 🤷🏼).

There is none, it's up to you. release/ branches are useful if you need to backport fixes/features to older versions. If it's not needed, then pure tags are ok
