How to choose which branch to build from

What Branch?

At any given point in time, the maint branch is recommended for general use. The following branches exist with logical functions:
  • master     (latest tagged release)
  • maint       (critical fixes on current master)
  • testing     (selected merges for testing; accumulates for the upcoming release)
Optionally, depending on dev activity, there could be an extra branch for people with a desire/need for bleeding edge:
  • unstable  (recommended only on explicit instruction by devs or when you know what you are doing)
