+Branch Structure
+----------------
+
+The branch structure of this project is very similiar to the `git-flow`_
+branching model, but with some modifications (we don't have release branches).
+
+Description of the branches:
+
+- **default**: This is the stable branch.
+- **stable**: This is the main development branch.
+- **hotfix-***: These branches branch off from the default branch and are used to
+  fix bugs which are in the stable version. They will be merged back into
+  *default* and *dev*. After the bug is fixed, the *PATCH* number must be
+  increased!
+- **feature-***: In these branches, we will implement new features. These will
+  branch off from the *dev* branch and merged back into the *dev* branch, if
+  the feature is completed!
