27 September 2024 -- BusyBox 1.37.0 (unstable)

BusyBox 1.37.0. (git, patches, how to add a patch)

Sizes of busybox-1.36.0 and busybox-1.37.0 (with equivalent config, 
static musl build):

   text	   data	    bss	    dec	    hex	filename
1022792	    559	   4988	1028339	  fb0f3
	busybox-1.36.0/busybox
1024327	    559	   4988	1029874	  fb6f2
	busybox-1.37.0/busybox

The link for git is: 
https://git.busybox.net/busybox/log/?h=1_37_stable

I use git clone git://busybox.net/busybox.git
and build and it shows.
BusyBox v1.38.0.git (2026-03-27 22:43:15 ChST) multi-call binary.

An Web search via AI gives this.

BusyBox 1.38.0 has been referenced in third-party package 
management systems, such as
winget and Repology, but as of late March 2026, it is not the 
official stable or unstable release on the main BusyBox website. 
The official BusyBox project provides source code access via Git. 
The main repository can be cloned using the following command: 
git clone git://git.busybox.net/busybox 
For specific information regarding the 1.38.0 version, it appears 
primarily in the context of forks, unofficial builds (like 
busybox-w32), or in various distribution repositories as a potential 
future or development version. The official project website lists the 
latest stable release as 1.36.1 and the latest unstable release as 
1.37.0. 
You can browse the official source code and different 
branches/tags through the web interface on the BusyBox website's 
source control page or the official mirror on GitHub. 

They finally seem to have the web page working better, For a while 
was showing port 443 filtered.

Seems something is fully uptodate with info.
Thanks.
