"Changes from original proposal" says "Releases branched from "master", per 
Git Flow."

But that's not how Git Flow works. Release branches are created from 
"develop" and merged to "master". Only hotfix branches are created from 
"master".

Reference: http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/

"Release branches

May branch off from: develop
Must merge back into: develop and master
Branch naming convention: release-*"

"Hotfix branches

May branch off from: master
Must merge back into: develop and master
Branch naming convention: hotfix-*"
