Hi all,
there have been created the libreoffice-3-6-2 branch. It will be used
for fine tuning of the 3.6.2 release.
!!!IMPORTANT:!!!
We are trying the "two-weeks-between-rcs" approach, so there
is longer time before rc2. I suggest to keep the number of changes
on minimum. RC2 should include only very safe fixes, so we could
release it just with a smoketest. Otherwise, we would not be able
to release a bugfix release every 4 weeks.
Anyway, the following rules apply:
+ preferably just translation or blocker fixes
+ only cherry-picking from libreoffice-3-6 branch
+ 2 additional reviews needed; 2nd reviewer pushes
+ no regular merges back to anything
The 'libreoffice-3-6' branch is still active and will be used for the
3.6.3 bugfix release. Please read more at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Branches
Now, if you want to switch your clone to the branch, please do:
./g pull -r
./g checkout -b libreoffice-3-6-2 origin/libreoffice-3-6-2
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-3-6-2 when you have switched to it. This will
save you some git shouting at you.
Happy hacking,
Petr
