Only in case you need to release software to the outside world you work with release branches.
In this case, each branch contains a minor version (2-3-stable, 2-4-stable, etc.).

By not branching as late as possible you minimize the time you have to apply bugfixes to multiple branches.
The stable branch uses master as a starting point and is created as late as possible.
By branching as late as possible you minimize the time you have to apply bugfixes to multiple branches.
After a release branch is announced, only serious bug fixes are included in the release branch.
If possible these bug fixes are first merged into master and then cherry-picked into the release branch.
Merging them in master first ensures you do not forget to merge them into master and encounter the same bug on the next release.
