Is your confusion mostly around the fact that one of them is built from source and one from package, or that 6.7 is more of a floating tag? I know I've seen that pattern in some other upstream repos like centos, postgres, mysql, etc, but for those it might be 6.7 points to the latest 6.7.x that was shipped, rather than more like head/nightly. > > I like the :edge and :latest tags. > > But I think I'd be happier with some kind of "nightly" specification on > the source version (unless I've misunderstood).
