+ Branches are tagged in the following way: +

+
    +
  • REL_1_5_BRANCH
    • +
  • REL_2_0_BRANCH
    • +
+

+ Merge points should be tagged as follows: +

+
    +
  • REL_1_5_BRANCH_MERGE1
    • +
  • REL_1_5_BRANCH_MERGE2
    • +
  • etc...
    • +
+

+ Releases should be tagged as: +

+
    +
  • REL_1_5
    • +
  • REL_1_5_1
    • +
  • REL_1_5_2
    • +
  • etc...
    • +

+

+ Don't forget which branch you are currently on. This is critically + important. Committing stuff to the wrong branch causes all sorts of + headaches. Best to name your checkout after the branch you are on. +

+
+
+

+ All branching is currently managed by Glen Stampoultzis. If you wish + to create your own branch please let him know. Merging is also + handled by Glen. Just pop him a mail if you feel it's necessary to + create a branch or perform a merge. +

+

+ The reason to go through a single point for branching is that it can be + an easy thing to get wrong. Having a single person managing branches + means there is less chance of getting getting our wires crossed with this + difficult area of CVS. +

+
+
+

+ The following branches are currently active: +

+ Branch + + Description +
+ HEAD + + This is the trunk and is always active. Currently it is being used to continue development + of the 2.0 release. +
+ REL_1_5_BRANCH + + All bug fixes not specifically relevant to the 2.0 work should be placed in this branch. + From here they will merged back to the trunk and the merge point marked. +
