The Go project maintains two stable tags in its Mercurial repository:
|
||||
<code>release</code> and <code>weekly</code>.
|
||||
The <code>weekly</code> tag is updated about once a week, and should be used by
|

those who want to track the project's development.
|
||||
The <code>release</code> tag is given, less often, to those weekly releases
|
||||
that have proven themselves to be robust.
