The ‘Ghetto’ development model:

This is where you send new features into the ghetto so that they can ‘battle it out’. The last features standing get re-integrated into another branch known as the trailer park to try to find a new life for themselves.

Note that ghetto is frequently called trunk, and the trailer park something like releng. The ‘hood is frequently mis-spelled “head”.

Sadly, this model is in use by virtually every Subversion hosted project out there.
