Sorry, I misread that the first time, so my previous-message comments about that didn't make sense. That creates a branch off a release tag. It has seemed to me that fixes go onto master after the release (which is a good thing). On a repo where I have done a checkout to the commit that I want this minute (what was on master before develop was merged; I've put my local master pointer there), I just did: $ git log --oneline v3.9.2.. a8834236 (HEAD -> master, tag: gdt_stable) LOCAL: change home prefix 0ecd4fed wmr200: Discard packets with 'interval' of zero (#472) 3eb97346 Fix engine to exit correctly on Terminate signal (#442) c78e4b51 Documented commit https://github.com/weewx/weewx/commit/459ccb1309df776cfea9fc84549b76166cbeaf94 in change log 93d7d57a Now sorts using locale.strxfrm, so no longer necessary to convert to utf-8. CF: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/commit/e54b942557f2de32e2814509f7f4b2c2bfe1398e 80c612de Updated date in change log 20c8c3a3 don't mess with the permissions - just sync the files and these are the commits that landed on what I'd call stable-3-9 that are after v3.9.2. If there were a v3.9.3 (I am *not* complaining that there isn't), then those commits would presumably be in it. (That top commit is me just moving the install prefix from /home/weewx to /usr/weewx; I expect to rebase them when updating.) > If you want to install a particular release, you could alternately download > the tarball from old_releases in the web page. Yes, I realize that, and with the tags there's no need. > What's missing ? A way to "follow 3.9 stable" without me back-constructing the branch tag. So basically what's missing is a branch ref stable-3-9 which started out pointing to master as soon as it became v3.9 time, is advanced along commits on master intended for v3.9.next, and now points to 0ecd4fed. Does that make sense (even if you don't think the cost of doing it is worth the benefit, which I can see as arguable). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "weewx-development" group.
