I suppose it depends what you understand by safe, but the answer is probably
yes. Whenever we create a tag, it signifies that a piece of functionality
has been added. And based on what you'll need to do to upgrade, we'll be
using either patch, minor or major versions.

If you want to run from master, you'll have to determine whether you need
to:
- run bundle install
- run rake db:migrate
- remove cached javascripts/css

*every time you pull.* Sticking to tagged versions means you don't have to.

Cheers,

Thanks - that was useful to know and thus I've copied it to here:
https://gitorious.org/gitorious/pages/Installation

Also moved that "DISCONTINUED TODO" to the bottom of the page so it no 
longer appears to be a comment on the entire page.

master should be considered "Gitorious beta" (generally stable, may 
have occasional issues, incomplete features a.s.o), while tags provide 
stable releases.

The team decided to use master as development branch. If you want
stable versions, stick with tags. In other words: Development
moved on, but nothing was tagged as new version (be it a minor
step forward or a major) yet.

That makes sense now. But you guys have been pushing code to

and not updating the tags. That's not good.

Thank you Benjamin. This is correct: we will continue to actively develop
Gitorious on master, and we will try to keep it stable as before. However,
the tags will receive more testing, and in general should be more reliable
as a mechanism to upgrade local installs. So, master should be considered
"Gitorious beta" (generally stable, may have occasional issues, incomplete
features a.s.o), while tags provide stable releases.

We haven't deployed any changes since 2.0.0, too busy enjoying summer :-)
