Releases is the biggest repository that also has the individual release branches. The default branch of releases does track the default branch of main-silver.
So if you want to make you own NetBeans 8.0.1 build and patch it, you would use releases which has the release801_fcs branch. I have personally always used main-silver. I believe nightly builds are also created from main-silver. Today only https://github.com/emilianbold/main-silver is up-to-date. You can only use this. https://github.com/emilianbold/releases is still being converted. It has only reached May 2009 so it's going to take a while until it gets to 2016. Once releases is done, since it has everything, we should only use releases. --emi On Wed, Dec 21, 2016 at 3:14 PM, John McDonnell <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi Emilian, > > I guess its already been said, but if I wanted to have a look at the > netbeans sources, maybe locally make a change, build and deploy locally > etc, should i clone https://github.com/emilianbold/releases < > https://github.com/emilianbold/releases> (when its finished) or > https://github.com/emilianbold/main-silver <https://github.com/ > emilianbold/main-silver> ? > > Regards > > John > > > On 21 Dec 2016, at 12:58, Emilian Bold <[email protected]> wrote: > > > > Hello, > > > > I'm incrementally converting http://hg.netbeans.org/releases/ to git and > > pushing it to GitHub in the https://github.com/emilianbold/releases > > repository. > > > > This is going to take a while... > > > > --emi > >
