Re: [Csnd-dev] restore develop as default branch?

Afaik, the develop branch bar a few minor parser issues runs any code that the master branch currently runs.

I agree, but if and only if somebody coming to Csound can build v7 and run pieces.

Hi all,

I am just wondering now, in view of our final push to have 7.0 released September, should we restore the develop

branch as default?

My reasoning is:

- The current master as 6.18 is getting a bit old. Not sure we should invest any efforts in making a 6.19 to

refresh it, as our time is limited and we have to concentrate on 7.0.

- There’s sometimes confusion for submitting PRs as they go to the default branch and need to be edited.

Also when pulling, the default branch is what comes up, people might start working on changes to it without

realising it is a dead end.

- The develop branch is fairly stable now, particularly as we can’t commit directly to it and the code there

is fully reviewed.

- Foregrounding 7.0 as the way forward is a good idea.

What do you think?
