        There is only one CURRENT and it has 5 for the leading digit.

        There are three RELENG branches (more or less) alive,

        RELENG_2, RELENG_3 and RELENG_4.

        RELENG branches cycle through STABLE -> BETA -> RELEASE -> STABLE ...

        BETA is the lockdown and test period prior to RELEASE when things are
most stable. RELEASE is a point, and STABLE is the rest of the time.
