Its primary +purpose is to accumulate changes that are not yet partitioned into a +specific (versioned) release. When people say "use CVS emacs", this is +the branch they are talking about. Likewise, a "cvs checkout" without +the "-r" option results in this branch. + +The plans for this branch are not specified; Emacs hackers add to it +relatively free of constraint (aside from proper legal / accounting +practices), although sometimes there is related discussion on the +emacs-devel mailing list. + +The closure process for this branch is undocumented; concepts such as +"freeze", "release", or "integration with the trunk" are not applicable +to this branch. |
