[boost] merging from develop to master

Hello,

I'm trying to compare Boost.Python's develop branch with master, to
decide how to proceed. I was naively assuming that develop would
regularly be rebased so it's easy to merge patches.
However, https://github.com/boostorg/python/branches/active indicates
develop is "276 commits ahead". How is that possible ? How did previous
maintainers keep the develop branch in sync with master ? How is this
handled in other Boost libraries ?

Thanks,
        Stefan
