This is very good, however, some thing are still unclear.

First, regression fix don't make any sense to me. You suggest to 
fix bug in master and fix regression in older branches. This 
should be the opposite IMO.

A regression is something that used to work, but don't work 
anymore. So Correcting them in older version seems kind of 
contradictory, especially when other bugs aren't.

I don't think separating those 2 type of bugs is really 
beneficial and I would keep only the process for regression fixes.

Secondly, in every git commands block you have all the commands 
to set-up the repository. I think this belong to its own 
paragraph or even its own page. Then I'd replace them with git 
remote update in git command block.

Finally, it is weird that we have v2.062 -> v2.062.1 . I'd 
prefers v2.062.0 for the first one.

I like very much the ASCII art on top, which make thing really 
clear. Overall, it is better that the actual version on the wiki.
