Hi all,

there have been created the libreoffice-3-6-6 branch. It will be used
for fine tuning of the 4.6.6 release.

The following rules apply:

        + preferably just translation or blocker fixes
	+ only cherry-picking from libreoffice-4-0 branch
	+ 2 additional reviews needed; 2nd reviewer pushes
	+ no regular merges back to anything

This is the last planned bug fix release for the LibreOffice 3.6 code
line. Though, LibreOffice 3.6 is going to be supported next few months.
We might want to release 3.6.7 because of a security bug or another
critical issue. Hence, it still makes some sense to push critical fixes
into the libreoffice-3-6 branch but they need not be used in the end.

Please read more at

Now, if you want to switch your clone to the branch, please do:

./g pull -r
./g checkout -b libreoffice-3-6-6 origin/libreoffice-3-6-6

Hopefully it will work for you :-)  Most probably, you will also want to
do (if you haven't done it yet):

git config --global push.default tracking

When you do git push with this, git will push only the branch you are
on; e.g. libreoffice-3-6-6 when you have switched to it.  This will
save you some git shouting at you.


Happy hacking,
Petr
