You can view the available Emacs branches at

|
|
|
|
Development normally takes places on the trunk.
|
|
Sometimes specialized features are developed on separate branches
|
|
before possibly being merged to the trunk.
|
|
|
|
Development is discussed on the emacs-devel mailing list.
|
|
|
|
Sometime before the release of a new major version of Emacs (eg 23.2),
|
|
a "feature freeze" is imposed on the trunk. No new features may be
|
|
added after this point. This is usually some months before the release.
|
|
|
|
Shortly before the release, a release branch is created, and the
|
|
trunk is then free for development.
|
|
For example, "emacs-23" for Emacs 23.2 and later, "EMACS_23_1_RC" for
|
|
23.1, "EMACS_22_BASE" for 22.x, and "EMACS_21_1_RC" for 21.x.
|
|
|
|
Consult emacs-devel for exactly what kinds of changes are allowed
|
|
on what branch at any time.
|
|
|
|
If you are looking at this file in a branch other than the trunk,
|
|
there may be some branch-specific documentation below this line.

This branch does not contain a copy of Emacs, but of the Emacs Lisp

package archive (elpa.gnu.org). See admin/notes/elpa for further
|

explanation, and the README file in the branch for usage
|
|
instructions.
