[mdt-papyrus.dev] Post-M7 Plan & Branches

[LETAVERNIER Camille <Camille.LETAVERNIER@xxxxxx>]

Hi all,

 

Some work-in-progress features won’t make it into M7 and will be postponed for Oxygen (Or maybe Neon.1 depending on their individual state).

 

To avoid these feature branches becoming stale and/or incompatible with each other, we’ll create a pre-Oxygen branch, which will be rebased on top of master after RC4

 

You can find the plan for branches and build in Bug 492887 [1]. The general idea is to:

 

-          Preserve the master branch for Neon until the final Neon build (RC4)

-          Stick to the current convention as much as possible (Using streams/x-maintenance and master for official releases)

-          Allow Feature developments targeting Oxygen right after M7 (Including builds)

 

The branch and builds will be created early next week if no issues are reported regarding this approach
