git Branches
************
There are two active branches in the git repository:
- the "unstable" branch called ``master`` where new features are
merged. This will become the next major release eventually.
- the "stable" branch (currently called ``v0.21.x``) where only bug
fixes are merged.
Once :program:`MPD` 0.22 is released, a new branch called ``v0.22.x``
will be created for 0.22 bug-fix releases; after that, ``v0.21.x``
will eventually cease to be maintained.
After bug fixes have been added to the "stable" branch, it will be
merged into ``master``. This ensures that all known bugs are fixed in
all active branches.
