Hello Syed and Sid, There is a conceptual misunderstanding. A "git branch" is different from "a git tag"; each release (4.11.z.s, 4.12.0.0, and so on) is based on a tag, not a branch. The branch is created based on 4.y.0.0. Then, as other versions are added and released the branch is updated for further releases of the branch.
You are right when you say that file 'patchviasocket.py is not on branches 4.11 and 4.12, however the same is not valid for tags 4.11.0.0, 4.11.1.0, 4.11.2.0, and 4.12.0.0. You can verify that the commit [1], removing 'patchviasocket.py', was merged after releases 4.11.2.0 and 4.12.0.0, but in time for 4.11.3.0 and master (which will be tagged and released as 4.13.0.0). You will see that the 'patchviasocked.py' is on 4.11.2 (version released on November 2018): https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/4.11.2.0/scripts/vm/hypervisor/kvm/patchviasocket.py And also on 4.12.0.0 (released in March 2019): https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/4.12.0.0/scripts/vm/hypervisor/kvm/patchviasocket.py 4.11.3 (released in June 2019), on the other hand, does not have that file: https://github.com/apache/cloudstack/blob/4.11.3.0/scripts/vm/hypervisor/kvm/patchviasocket.py Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the packages released for 4.12.0.0. They are aligned with the tag 4.12.0.0 that we have in Github. Does that explain your doubts? Regards, Gabriel.
