Would anyone care to > elaborate? One reason is so that 'git describe' can distinguish between a commit on the maint-5.24 and blead branches. So a blead commit soon after 5.24 is released will appear as e.g. v5.25.0-XX-gYYYYYYY, while a maint commit will appear as v5.24.0-XX-gYYYYYY Otherwise they both appear confusingly as v5.24.0-something. -- A major Starfleet emergency breaks out near the Enterprise, but fortunately some other ships in the area are able to deal with it to everyone's satisfaction. -- Things That Never Happen in "Star Trek" #13Thread Previous | Thread Next
