So I would suggest to delete every branch right after merging, and then
branch off of master later when a new patch is going to be applied.
This will also create a cleaner history by avoiding a merge.

I disagree with this because it seems like Mesa moves along at a pretty brisk pace and I feel like we'd be constantly recreating the same branch:

23.1.3, 2023-06-22 (14 days)
23.1.2, 2023-06-08 ( 9 days)
23.0.4, 2023-05-30 ( 5 days)
23.1.1, 2023-05-25 (15 days)
23.1.0, 2023-05-10

And so on.

I think this should be relatively clean and straightforward, a good use of our new branching/building strategy.

This seems more reasonable to me and like it's standard Git practice.
