<H1>CVS Branch Information</H1>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
At any given time, there may be several active branches in Mesa's
|
|
CVS repository.
|
|
|
|
Generally, the CVS trunk contains the latest development (unstable)
|
|
code while a CVS branch has the latest stable code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Currently (Oct 2004), the trunk is the Mesa 6.3 development code
|
|
while the mesa_6_2_branch branch has the stable Mesa 6.2.x code.
|
|
</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>
|
|
Mesa releases use an even/odd numbering scheme to represent stable/development
|
|
releases.
|
|
|
|
For example, Mesa 6.2 (0 is considered even) is a stable release while
|
|
Mesa 6.3 is a development release.
|

|
To checkout a specific CVS branch pass <code>-r</code> and
|
|
the branch tag after your CVS command.
|
|
|
|
For example <code>cvs checkout -r mesa_6_2_branch Mesa</code> will
|
|
checkout the 6.2 branch and <code>cvs update -r
|
|
mesa_6_2_branch</code> will convert your current CVS tree to the 6.2
|
|
branch.

To see a list of all the CVS branches run <code>cvs log README</code> (or any
|
|
other file) and look for the section labeled <code>symbolic names</code>.
|
|
You'll see something like this:
