Git workflow

See original GitHub issue

I propose all contributors to follow some Git workflow similar to Gitflow workflow. It will allow to keep master branch clean and use it for tagged releases only.

I already created a develop branch but not sure whether it should be set as base branch in repository settings. At the moment, master branch is a default (base) branch, and all pull requests proposed by other contributors are based to this branch by default. It doesn’t fit the proposed workflow and each time contributor creates a pull request he/she should set a base branch of pull request to develop manually to follow this workflow. Changing default branch from master to develop in repository settings can make develop branch a default base branch for new pull requests but only @shashwatak is able to change this branch as repo’s owner.

What do you think about this, guys?
