Branches are releases nightmares if they are all have the same versions, like all are 1.4.x but only one branch supports 7. I have asked that some time ago already and pointed out that we should really support semver and one branch per extension version, not per supported php version. > I really don't want to have a bunch of preprocessor use in the > extensions I am working on.

Single branche also helps to ensure APIs compatibility across php versions (same codename being maintained). > thanks > > -- > PHP Internals - PHP Runtime Development Mailing List > To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php >
