This is a temporary procedure till we are "Big Teneted"

1. In two different patches:
   1. pin the dependencies versions (Swift and Keystone) in tox.ini and in devstack localrc.sample
      1. In tox.ini place in the appropriate line:
         1. git+git://github.com/openstack/swift.git@2.7.0 <---- The version of the stable release
      2. In localrc.sample add e.g.:
         1. SWIFT_BRANCH=stable/ocata
         2. KEYSTONE_BRANCH=stable/ocata
   2. Update CHANGELOG with the tag for the release, and the Release notes.
2. Once the above patches are approved create and push the above-mentioned release tag, this will initiate the PyPI jobs. Make sure your .gitconfig is up-to-date with e.g. the gpg signingkey entry.
   1. git tag -m "stable/newton tag" -s 0.3.0
   2. git push gerrit 0.3.0
3. Create the branch
   1. git checkout -b stable/newton
   2. git push gerrit stable/newton
4. On master undo the dependencies version pinning
5. If a backport is required checkout the branch and cherry-pick the backport commit:
   1. git checkout stable/newton
   2. git cherry-pick <commit>
   3. git review stable/newton
