I do not quite understand. With --orphan you basically create another commit graph inside the fricas git repo that is disconnected from the sources that we normally commit to. Will there only be README files (one per nightly-build) or what do you want in this nightly-release branch?
Yes, the point is to have a disconnected single commit (tag/release) to hold the nightly builds. In this branch there will be only one commit -- a single README file (not one per nightly-build).
I somehow would not want to put extra stuff into the source git repo if it is not strictly necessary. Can you explain more.
The point is to have a commit/tag/release to hold the nightly builds. The alternative ways are: 1. The "--orphan" tree holds the commit/tag/release. 2. Select a commit from master branch to be the commit/tag/release. This might cause confusion for users. 3. Many other projects on GitHub create a new repo to hold the nightly builds. - Qian -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "FriCAS - computer algebra system" group.
