Also I do not understand your usage of the term "the merge". Can somebody give a **concrete** scenario? When you release a version, please do not move that version. You should then create new versions, with new numbers and new code. But never touch old versions with old numbers and old code. Like that I can download the same old code using the same old number to get the old version whenever I want :). You can try to do it with branches, tags, different repositories, or even with zipfiles in mails. I don't care. Just don't modify releases and I'm happy with it. > > -- > Cyril Ferlicot > https://ferlicot.fr > -- Guille Polito Research Engineer Centre de Recherche en Informatique, Signal et Automatique de Lille CRIStAL - UMR 9189 French National Center for Scientific Research - *http://www.cnrs.fr <http://www.cnrs.fr>* *Web:* *http://guillep.github.io* <http://guillep.github.io> *Phone: *+33 06 52 70 66 13
