================
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
MSB will follow MATE's workflow on versioning and releases as described in
|
|
|

|
MATE's wiki: http://wiki.mate-desktop.org/dev-doc.

Currently, there are three branches in the MSB GIT repository:
|
2013-07-16 18:31:38 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- master: The MSB development branch. It represents the most up-to-date
|
|
|
|
|
code, but no binary packages are built from this branch. Building from
|
|
|
|
|
this branch may or may not work. This is where the next stable release
|
|
|
|
|
will come from. Please use this branch for testing only and not for
|
|
|
|
|
production environments.

|
|
- 14.0-mate-1.6: The MSB stable branch for Slackware 14.0. This is the
|
|
|
|
|
previously supported branch and only receives bug fix updates. The MSB
|
|
|
|
|
1.6 binary packages for Slackware 14.0 were built from this branch.
|
2013-11-08 10:59:15 +01:00
|
|
|
Since Slackware 14.1 has been declared as the next stable release then
|
|
|
|
|
this branch is considered obsoleted and no longer updated.

|
|
|
This is the previously supported branch and only receives bug fix
|
|

|
updates. The MSB 1.6 binary packages for Slackware 14.1 are built from

|
|
|

this branch. You might want to use this branch if you enjoy stable
|
|
|
|
|
releases. Since MATE 1.8 has been released as the next stable release
|
|
|
|
|
then this branch is considered obsoleted and no longer updated.

An easy way to find out which branch are you in right now (once you have
|
|
|
|
|
cloned the repo or pulled the latest updates):
|
|
|
|
|
|
2013-07-16 18:35:17 +02:00
|
|
|
$ git branch
|
2013-07-16 18:31:38 +02:00
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
An asterisk will appear in front of the branch you are currently in.
|
|
|
|
|
Example output of 'git branch':
