Subject: Pre-release commit etiquette
Date: Wed, 25 Apr 2007 10:28:40 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <pan.2007.04.25.17.28.33.256770@as.arizona.edu> (raw)
What are the rules for a commit pre-release? If you have a small bug
fix for the release version, should it:
1. Be added to the branch EMACS_22_BASE, for later merger into HEAD.
2. Be added to both the branch and HEAD.
3. Be added to HEAD only, with a request to merge the change from
HEAD->EMACS_22_BASE.
4. Be added to HEAD and held for a future release.
If #3, who handles those requests? I suppose this depends on whether a
new branch is going to be cut at the actual release point, in which case
(I presume), all branch changes will be merged back.
JD
