Hi all,
there have been created the libreoffice-3-5-1 branch. It will be used
for fine tuning of the 3.5.1 release.
It was created before the tag for 3.5.1-rc1 to avoid race condition in
the automatically generated bugzilla comments.
It was created already on Wednesday evening. I did not announce it
because the 3 reviews were not needed before the tag for rc1. I just
cherry picked all fixes from 3-5 branch. The cherry picking should not
be needed in a normal case. I plan to create the branch and tag at the
same time (within one hour). This time I was too fast with creating the
branch and did not wait for one build fix that was more complicated
than expected. I am sorry for potential confusion.
The following rules apply:
+ preferably just translation or blocker fixes
+ only cherry-picking from libreoffice-3-5 branch
+ 2 additional reviews needed; 2nd reviewer pushes
+ no regular merges back to anything
The 'libreoffice-3-5' branch is still active and will be used for the
3.5.2 bugfix release. Please read more at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan

Now, if you want to switch your clone to the branch, please do:
./g pull -r
./g checkout -b libreoffice-3-5-0 origin/libreoffice-3-5-1
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-3-5-1 when you have switched to it. This will
save you some git shouting at you.
Happy hacking,
Petr
