Ah, okay, I think I have it now. So as a general proposition, the source code to match any release can be found here:
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/lucene/dev/tags/ It would be helpful for the “version control” web pages for Lucene and Solr to clearly direct people as to “release source” vs. “development source”. And to directly list links for recent releases/development branches. (BTW, I notice that the Lucenet “version control” page needs to have its copyright date bumped up.)

Publishing artifacts will start soon. Added: lucene/dev/tags/lucene_solr_3_6_1/ (props changed) - copied from r1362471, lucene/dev/branches/lucene_solr_3_6/ This marks the exact revision number of the release. The tag is not used for new commits (it could be used for that, but that’s a break to common SVN usage). It’s there just to checkout the exact source. Development stays on the branch. ----- Uwe Schindler H.-H.-Meier-Allee 63, D-28213 Bremen http://www.thetaphi.de eMail: [email protected] From: Uwe Schindler [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2012 4:21 PM To: [email protected] Subject: RE: Source branches for 3.6.1 and 4.0-Alpha The 3.6 branch is used for all development on 3.6.x, the Lucene4x branch is used for developing 4.x. The releases are only marked as “tags”, no need to branch. We only branch when a new branch starts (like 3.6 or 4.0-alpha was released and bugfixes come in). ----- Uwe Schindler H.-H.-Meier-Allee 63, D-28213 Bremen http://www.thetaphi.de eMail: [email protected] From: Jack Krupansky [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Sunday, July 22, 2012 4:17 PM To: Lucene/Solr Dev Subject: Source branches for 3.6.1 and 4.0-Alpha I don’t see svn branches for either 3.6.1 or 4.0-Alpha... how exactly can I checkout/view source that was used to create 3.6.1 or 4.0-Alpha? Thanks. -- Jack Krupansky
