Jesus,
I created build scripts that I use several times a month to build and
install KMM from the 3 branches (including 4.8). You can also build
from a released source file. Feel free to download them from the link
below, they may help explain the process even if you do not wish to
use them. I always download a fresh source tree rather than patching
an existing tree. I had some issues when I first started compiling
from source more than 10 years ago and decided not to mess updates.
This was back in the cvs days.
I can easily put diff files in the Patches folder that will be applied
to any new builds. I've attached a sample below. This patch shortens
the text in the scheduled transaction tab. I was annoyed by it not
fitting in the tab in tabbed view so I found a way to abbreviate it.
Pretty simple patch.
As far as which branch is stable, good luck with that:-) Every time I
ask for an explanation I get more confused. I normally compile the
Master branch unless I know a change is only in the 5.0 branch. You
can reorder the branches in the ScriptsKMM.conf file to make your
chosen default branch first (GitBranches="MASTER 5.0 4.8").
If you have any feedback or suggestions for my scripts please let me know.
