GitHub

The code for Sahana Eden is hosted on GitHub at github.com/sahana/eden. This repository contains several branches:

master

The master branch holds the current stable version of the Eden code, and is intended for deployment or downstream development. It will only be updated by the release process, no pull requests are accepted for this branch.

dev

The dev branch holds the latest development version. Contributors should target this branch, and would normally submit their pull requests there.

maintenance

The maintenance branch serves as a staging area for maintenance updates to the current stable version, e.g. bug fixes or enhancements backported from the dev branch. The dev branch must be successfully rebased on this branch before the fixes can be merged into master.

v*

These branches contain previous versions, e.g. v4 holds release 4.5, which is the latest release of version 4. These branches can be used for study, historic reference and support, but are not part of the development or release process.
