* **What is the intended use of the `support` subcommand?**
45+
46+
Long term support of old releases is a use case that not covered in the [original
47+
description of Git Flow](https://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/). You might for instance have customers running old releases
48+
that still require bugfixes and maintenance, even though newer versions have long
49+
since replaced them. The [`git flow support`](https://github.com/petervanderdoes/gitflow-avh/wiki/Reference:-git-flow-support)
50+
command creates branches that are _not supposed to be merged back into master_.
