Hi Richard,
Thanks for the clarification. I see that the branch is in fact
client_release/7/7.8 so it is now clear to me that 7.8.3 refers to the tag.
Thanks,
Laurence

Commit a3b75f4 is the only difference between the two possible source
tarballs. That commit updates the Windows Installshield files, and is
correctly atomic: there are no changes to the delivered BOINC code,
only to the delivery mechanism. Outside the Windows Installer
environment, there should be no differences in the code. I hope that
helps you to start testing while it's still night-time in David's
timezone.

Hi David,
In order test, please could you confirm exactly what we should be
testing? From my understanding the 'Tag' is client_release/7.8/7.8.3/
and this results in the following URL for the source tarball.
https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/archive/client_release/7.8/7.8.3/boinc-7.8.3.tar.gz
This tag represents commit efcd392 but I see that the latest commit on
the 'branch' client_release/7.8/7.8.3/ is a3b75f4 and would result in
the following URL for the source tarball.
https://github.com/BOINC/boinc/archive/a3b75f4184e8f86516d5f892accab0a32de6b913/boinc-a3b75f4.tar.gz
Which should I test?
Regards,
Laurence
