<H1>CVS Branch Information</H1>

<p>
The Mesa3d sources are split up into two branches. A branch that is to
remain as stable as possible, and an unstable branch where development
work for new versions will be done. The current stable branch is
tagged <code>mesa_3_4_branch</code> while the unstable branch is just
the default. The goal is to adopt and even/odd stable/unstable
versioning scheme similar to the Linux kernel. Hence releases of Mesa
3.2.X should be more stable than Mesa 3.3.X.<p></p> <p>All versions of
Mesa after 3.0 will also be tagged with a branch id. Mesa 3.1 has the
tag <code>mesa_3_1</code>, Mesa 3.2 will be <code>mesa_3_2</code>,
Mesa 3.3 <code>mesa_3_3</code>, etc..</p>

<p>
To checkout a specific branch of mesa just pass <code>-r</code> and
the branch tag after your cvs command. For example <code>cvs checkout
-r mesa_3_4_branch Mesa</code> will checkout the 3.4 branch and
<code>cvs update -r mesa_3_4_branch</code> will convert your current
branch to the 3.4 dev branch.

for more on branching in cvs.

<p>
To see a list of all the CVS branchs run <code>cvs log README</code> (or any
other file) and look for the section labeled <code>symbolic names</code>.
You'll see something like this:
