| 10 | The Mesa3d sources are split up into two branches. A branch that is to |
| 11 | remain as stable as possible, and an unstable branch where development |
| 12 | work for new versions will be done. The current stable branch is |
| 13 | tagged <code>mesa_3_4_branch</code> while the unstable branch is just |
| 14 | the default. The goal is to adopt and even/odd stable/unstable |
| 15 | versioning scheme similar to the Linux kernel. Hence releases of Mesa |
| 16 | 3.2.X should be more stable than Mesa 3.3.X.<p></p> <p>All versions of |
| 17 | Mesa after 3.0 will also be tagged with a branch id. Mesa 3.1 has the |
| 18 | tag <code>mesa_3_1</code>, Mesa 3.2 will be <code>mesa_3_2</code>, |
| 19 | Mesa 3.3 <code>mesa_3_3</code>, etc..</p> |
| 20 | |
| 21 | <p> |
| 22 | To checkout a specific branch of mesa just pass <code>-r</code> and |
| 23 | the branch tag after your cvs command. For example <code>cvs checkout |
| 24 | -r mesa_3_4_branch Mesa</code> will checkout the 3.4 branch and |
| 25 | <code>cvs update -r mesa_3_4_branch</code> will convert your current |
| 26 | branch to the 3.4 dev branch. |

| 33 | To see a list of all the CVS branchs run <code>cvs log README</code> (or any |
| 34 | other file) and look for the section labeled <code>symbolic names</code>. |
| 35 | You'll see something like this: |
