unstable: uses Samza's master branch.

will we use "unstable" for the branch name?

I agree on this proposal and would like to have branches for different versions. That makes sure users can run hello-samza against different versions.

Only one thought: can we use hello-samza master maps to Samza's mater branch? It seems more intuitive... the latest release version always will have a version number, (current 0.7.0, later 0.8.0), we can just use this as the branch name. I know, that will actually make the master branch of hello samza unrunable...So I am not very consistent in this thought.

> The hello-samza example project has only a single master branch right now. This branch is set to use the latest release of Samza (0.7.0, currently). We've been discussing creating a development branch for hello-samza so that developers can experiment with the unreleased version of Samza (0.8.0, currently the master branch for the samza repo).
> I'm proposing having the following branch structure:
> * master: uses the latest released version of Samza (currently 0.7.0).
> * unstable: uses Samza's master branch.
> * 0.X.0: all older (non-latest) releases will have their own branch.
> When we release 0.8.0, we will cut an 0.7.0 branch, and master will be switched to use 0.8.0. The unstable branch will always remain on samza's master branch.
