CVS Branch Information

+ +

+The Mesa3d sources are split up into two branches. A branch that is to +remain as stable as possible, and an unstable branch where development +work for new versions will be done. The current stable branch is +tagged mesa_3_4_branch while the unstable branch is just +the default. The goal is to adopt and even/odd stable/unstable +versioning scheme similar to the Linux kernel. Hence releases of Mesa +3.2.X should be more stable than Mesa 3.3.X.

All versions of +Mesa after 3.0 will also be tagged with a branch id. Mesa 3.1 has the +tag mesa_3_1, Mesa 3.2 will be mesa_3_2, +Mesa 3.3 mesa_3_3, etc..

+ +

+To checkout a specific branch of mesa just pass -r and +the branch tag after your cvs command. For example cvs checkout +-r mesa_3_4_branch Mesa will checkout the 3.4 branch and +cvs update -r mesa_3_4_branch will convert your current +branch to the 3.4 dev branch. +Consult http://www.durak.org/cvswebsites/doc/cvs_5.php3#SEC54 +for more on branching in cvs. +

+ +

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

+ +
  symbolic names:
+        mesa_4_0: 1.3
+        mesa_4_0_branch: 1.3.0.6
