MATE SlackBuilds
================
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 two branches in the MSB GIT repository:
- 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.
- 1.6: The MSB stable branch. This is the supported branch and only
receives bug fix updates. The MSB binary packages are built from this
branch. You might want to use this branch if you enjoy stable releases.
Once 'master' has been declared the next stable release (e.g. 1.8) then
this branch will be obsoleted and no longer updated.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):
$ git branch
An asterisk will appear in front of the branch you are currently in.
Example output of 'git branch':
1.6
* master
This output indicates that you are now in the 'master' branch.
To switch to another branch, use 'git checkout <branch_name>'. Example:
$ git checkout 1.6
$ git branch
* 1.6
master
You have now switched from the 'master' branch to the '1.6' branch.
