Yes, it's this "But This Ain't Monday...!" feeling. :)

I've probably grown too lazy because with the 15.07 and 16.03 git master cycles the timeline code was stabilizing very rapidly so I could work without much trouble on git master. My view is that JB does a tremendous job and the refactoring is absolutely necessary and worth the time. But we probably need now some stabilizing phase, and I don't refer to frame stablizing here... ;)

As you pointed out, Evert: I need to more often Ctrl-N, then reload the project to make sure that the checkpoint is safe.

Best regards,
Harald

Oh, I know _exactly_ how that feels.
Even saving often is no help, as the project looks ok, it's only when you load it back up that the corruption becomes apparent. I have changed my routine to be: save, then revert to last saved version.
This generally allows me to catch these timeline corruptions early.

There are a few of my bugs open on some of the timeline corruptions that I could pin down.

Now, this is only my opinion, but it "feels" like this part of the project is getting so complicated that small changes to the way the timeline operates has many unintended side effects. I've seen JBM make some refactoring attempts there, from the git commits.

Kind regards,
Evert

    The git master has some terrible issues with moving clips. I've
    just lost half an hour work; have backups though. Nevertheless it
    is no fun to notice severe timeline corruption only quite some
    time later. I've already reported several timeline corruption
    issues in the past weeks.

    Does anybody know here when we will enter the phase of stabilizing
    git master?

    Best regards,
