Yes, we create branch from the tag in case a version needs patching.
which removes the need for a dev branch

Bug fixes are squash merged from the pull request branches into master, then the dev branch rebase from master.
Yes I understand. I didn’t realise you were gutted a release branch from master as well, I understood you were just using the git tag!
Off topic, I've been to Belfast twice. Nice city!
It is, come back soon!
