The project takes the following branching approach:

* The ``3.x`` branch holds unchanged files synchronized from the upstream
* The ``cpython`` branch holds unchanged files synchronized from the upstream
CPython repository. The synchronization is currently done by manually copying
the required files and stating from which CPython changeset they come.

* The ``main`` branch holds a version of the ``3.x`` code with some tweaks
* The ``main`` branch holds a version of the ``cpython`` code with some tweaks
that make it compatible with older Pythons. Code on this branch must work
on all supported Python versions. Test with ``tox`` or in CI.

The process works like this:

1. In the ``3.x`` branch, run ``pip-run -- sync-upstream.py``, which
1. In the ``cpython`` branch, run ``pip-run -- sync-upstream.py``, which
downloads the latest stable release of Python and copies the relevant
files from there into their new locations and then commits those
changes with a nice reference to the relevant upstream commit hash.
