And I see that there are many more tests failing with mingw.git's \nmaster, too.

I really want to avoid that breakage...\n\nTo refresh my memory, could you please describe how mingw.git's master and \ndevel branches are handled?\n\nCiao,\nDscho\n"},{"id":"51834","messageId":"46D59402.2060807@eudaptics.com","threadId":"9690","inReplyTo":"Pine.LNX.4.64.0708291621120.28586@racer.site","subject":"Re: [ANNOUNCE] GIT 1.5.3-rc7","fromName":"Johannes Sixt","fromEmail":"j.sixt@eudaptics.com","sentAt":"2007-08-29T15:42:58Z","receivedAt":"2007-08-29T15:42:58Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"j6t@kdbg.org","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/14810926?v=4"},"body":"Johannes Schindelin schrieb:\n> To refresh my memory, could you please describe how mingw.git's master and \n> devel branches are handled?\n\n'master' merges git.git's tagged releases, i.e. the 'maint' branch, but \nalso the -rc series of a new feature release (like in the past weeks).\n\n'devel' contains additional commits that make a \"flawless\" test suite, \ni.e. mostly disables tests that trigger bugs. This branch is always \nrebased onto of 'master'.\n\nOriginally 'devel' contained code changes without which MinGW git would \nhave been unusable, but currently it really only disables tests that \ntrigger exotic bugs[*] that I cannot fix right away and so is basically \njust for my own convenience. I could very well get rid of the branch - \nif only to raise the incentive for others to help fix the bugs. ;)\n\n[*] bugs that I do not encounter in may daily workflow.\n\n-- Hannes\n"}]}
