-
-The Vendor Branch
-
- Original version of Gnus.
- Each version has a tag of the form "qgnus-0_XY" or "gnus-5_X_Y".
-
- The branch tag for the vendor branch is "larsi".
-
-The Main Trunk
-
- Semi-gnus was developed on the main trunk until current branch-
- management plan (See "Public Branches" below) was introduced.
- Each version has a tag of the form "gnus-6_N2_N3". (0 < N2 < 5)
-
Public Branches
Current main stream of Semi-gnus development.
+ Semi-gnus developers share and maintain them.
- [Goal and policy of public branches here ???]
-
- Each branch has a tag of the form "gnus-N1_N2" and each version
+ Each public branch has a tag of the form "gnus-N1_N2" and each version
has a tag of the form "gnus-N1_N2_N3".
N1, N2, and N3 are changed by the following rules.
N2 will be incremented (and new branch will be created) if any "major
changes" are made. The following cases are "major changes".
* API changes of FLIM/SEMI(or any other modules used by Semi-gnus).
- * major version up of original Gnus.
+ * major version up of original Gnus.(e.g. Red/5.[34] -> Quassia/5.[56])
* synchronization with original Gnus which requires design decision.
N3 will be incremented if some "minor changes" are made. The follwoing
gnus-6_7 Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.8, FLIM 1.7 API (develop)
gnus-6_8 Semi-gnus for SEMI 1.8, FLIM 1.8 or 1.9 API
-Personal Branches
- Some Semi-gnus developers have their own "personal branches".
- Each personal branch may have its own goal and/or policy.
- See README.${tag} (if exists) for information of each branch.
+The Vendor Branch
- The following branch tags are curretly available.
+ Original version of Gnus.
+ Each version has a tag of the form "qgnus-0_XY" or "gnus-5_X_Y".
+
+ The branch tag for the vendor branch is "larsi".
+
+
+The Main Trunk
+
+ Semi-gnus was developed on the main trunk until current branch-
+ management plan (See "Public Branches" above) was introduced.
+ Now the main trunk is used only for the root of branches --- when
+ creating new branches, current develop branch is merged back to the
+ main trunk and new branches are created from there.
+
+ Each version has a tag of the form "gnus-6_N2_N3" (0 < N2 < 5) or
+ "semi-gnus-6_N2_N3" (N2 > ??).
