Hi all,

The tag libreoffice-4.2.8.1 (AKA 4.2.8 RC1) and the corresponding
branch libreoffice-4-2-8 have been created.
The branch will be used for fine tuning of the 4.2.8 release. (there
is one additional RC upcoming)

The following rules apply:

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

4.2.8 is an additional release to finish the 4.2 series
       http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.2#4.2.8_release
       http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Branches
       http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Release_Criteria

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

./g pull -r
./g checkout -b libreoffice-4-2-8 origin/libreoffice-4-2-8

To checkout the tag, use

./g fetch --tags
./g checkout -b tag-libreoffice-4.3.5.1 libreoffice-4.2.8.1

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-4-2-8 when you have switched to it.  This will
save you some git shouting at you.

Linux distro packages might find source tarballs at
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/
They will soon be available from the official page together with the builds.

Attached is the list of changes against 4.2.7 rc2 (4.2.7 final)

Happy hacking,
Christian
