Is that a bad practice? Do you mean that say fixes_1_8 contains these tags: lazarus_1_8_0 lazarus_1_8_2 lazarus_1_8_4 and the top of the fixes_1_8 branch has the very latest released fixes? If I already now have 1_8_4 as a tag and would like to switch it over to the fixes branch, how is that done? -- Bo Berglund Developer in Sweden -- _______________________________________________ Lazarus mailing list Lazarus@lists.lazarus-ide.org https://lists.lazarus-ide.org/listinfo/lazarus
