Well, I think it would mostly slow it down, due to having to copy patches to the release branches. Copying code is also very dangerous: we had to release Hastalaqb+ because I missed a single line, rendering all hero commands dead. Porting over only some changes may have unintended side effects/requires rewriting the code. On the other hand, the 7 months feature freeze put us 6ish months back on new features, and about 2-3 months forward on bugfixes. > > > > > What does it gain me? > > > > Browsing over HTTP to find a file in the repository vs. svn ls. > > ViewVC would work too. > > > -- > Keith Gable > Lead Programmer / Project Leader > The Ignition Project <http://www.ignition-project.com/> > > [Ask me how you can get a free Gmail account - Now with Google Chat!] > _______________________________________________ > Ohrrpgce mailing list > ohrrpgce@lists.motherhamster.org > http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org > _______________________________________________ Ohrrpgce mailing list ohrrpgce@lists.motherhamster.org http://lists.motherhamster.org/listinfo.cgi/ohrrpgce-motherhamster.org
