You've used it yourself before in GenKDEsvn. :-)

We have a private git repository for development. Any commit in its master 
branch gets auto-pushed by a simple hook to the public repository which is the 
overlay.

Any other branches in the private overlay stay just there. They're not 
publicly visible by default but they *can* be published for guinea pigs who 
feel like suffering. Once the the experimental stuff is safe enough for the 
public overlay, merge that branch to master and - swoosh!

Best regards, Wulf
