Hi everybody,
Thanks a lot for hints with working offline/online. I keep them all in
mind and keep experimenting with arch to see what is the best model for
me. I am leaning more and more towards branching, because I would like
to ba able to actually do some minor work on the desktop while my laptop
is left home with perhaps some work already started. I never did this
with CVS (this is illegal in my current setup), but I always felt that
such things should be allowed. I have created an experimental tla
archive now and try to understand how things work.
One thing which puzzles me is the role of version numbers in names of
projects in arch (this may well be a FAQ but a quick query brought no
answer and the tutorial is sketchy on this point).
I have created a dummy project myproject--mainline--0.1 and applied
several patches to it (up to patch-4). Then I wanted to release 0.1 to
public. I run the release script and want to start hacking on version
0.2. Actually tutorial does not say what is the preferred way to do it,
but since the concept of version number is self-explanatory, then I just
created a new project in the same archive myproject--mainline--0.2 and
tagged mainline--0.2 to mainline--01--patch-4. Everything fine. abrowse
shows a neat archive overview. But when I ask for a changelog of my
mainline--0.2-base-0 release I just get one entry saying what was the
original tag source.
Does it mean I can only generated a ChangeLog encompassing last version,
no more? Have I done anything wrong? What is the suitable model for
versioning (releasing/branching) projects?
Any hints/guiding will be highly appreciated.
Andrzej
