Dunce cap should be mine. The attempt to use linear numbers for something that simply isn't linear is a recipe for failure. The v4.4-branch starts from v4.4.0 - and so both master and that branch get numbers in the 4.4.0.gitrev space. My excuse is that I really don't want to do dot releases and haven't spent enough time to figure out a way to make this work. And so I just punt and say "whatever" :-/ > For what it is worth -- script works on Ubuntu 14.10. At least I got an > executable out of it. Cool. Thanks. I just released 4.4.1 (announcement to the mailing list comes next) /D > _______________________________________________ subsurface mailing list [email protected] http://lists.subsurface-divelog.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/subsurface
