Hi Julian, Thanks for the introduction.
Most of the commits are from PRs that supplement documents of version 0.8.0. However, these PRs went to master. From now on, I will change the target of document-related PRs to rel/0.8.0. Besides, there are two PRs that should be merged to rel/0.8.0. 1. about generating release folder: https://github.com/apache/incubator-iotdb/pull/282 2. about TsFile documents: https://github.com/apache/incubator-iotdb/pull/274 Best, -- Jialin Qiao School of Software, Tsinghua University 乔嘉林 清华大学 软件学院 > -----原始邮件----- > 发件人: "Julian Feinauer" <j.feina...@pragmaticminds.de> > 发送时间: 2019-07-22 15:01:14 (星期一) > 收件人: "dev@iotdb.apache.org" <dev@iotdb.apache.org> > 抄送: > 主题: Very frequent commits to rel/0.8 > > Hi al, > > I just checked the git logs and observerd that there are very frequent > commits to the branch “rel/0.8”, which should not be the case. > So I’ll try to briefly summarize the release process or how the branching > model works. > > The branch rel/0.8 is solely for the preparation for the release.
