<p>This page summarizes the changes between official stable releases of Go.
|
|
The <a href="//golang.org/change">change log</a> has the full details.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>To update to a specific release, use:</p>
|
|
|
|
<pre>
|
|
git pull
|
|
git checkout <i>release-branch</i>
|
|

<h2 id="policy">Release Policy</h2>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Each major Go release obsoletes and ends support for the previous one.
|
|
For example, if Go 1.5 has been released, then it is the current release
|
|
and Go 1.4 and earlier are no longer supported.
|
|
We fix critical problems in the current release as needed by issuing minor revisions
|
|
(for example, Go 1.5.1, Go 1.5.2, and so on).
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
As a special case, we issue minor revisions for critical security problems
|
|
in both the current release and the previous release.
|
|
For example, if Go 1.5 is the current release then we will issue minor revisions
|
|
to fix critical security problems in both Go 1.4 and Go 1.5 as they arise.
|
|
See the <a href="/security">security policy</a> for more details.
