Searching Confluence for "development flow" gives me [1], which suggests that the canonical source for this data is actually the guidance that was added to this repo in ef8ac8f.

Whether this is by merge or rebase is subject to considerations relating to the overall [flow and branching policy](development-flow.md). For certain repos - especially where there is a very broad scope, and contributions by multiple teams - it might be necessary that a maintainer, rather than the author, determines the order in which PRs are landed. It is the responsibility of the maintainers of those repos to define the policy for merging in such cases.
