That sounds fine to me.
Other small details:
- We should bump the cabal-install package version to be the same as the
Cabal package version, and increment both at the same time. It's deeply
confusing to have the two out of sync.
- I'd like to get rid of some old named branches that no longer have any
value, e.g. cabal-1.2. Keeping tags around for a long time makes sense,
branches do not.
