What Ossi said, and what I had said in my email: there will never be a 5.3.0 again, so there's no point in having a *branch* with that name. We only need the *tag* afterwards. Having both the branch and the tag is redundant. Also, please note that the discussion some months ago ended with both Ossi and I recommending that the tag be merged back into the branch for the minor series. That is, 5.3.0 gets tagged as v5.3.0 on release and v5.3.0 s merged into 5.3; after that, 5.3.0 is deleted. -- Thiago Macieira - thiago.macieira (AT) intel.com Software Architect - Intel Open Source Technology Center _______________________________________________ Development mailing list [email protected] http://lists.qt-project.org/mailman/listinfo/development
