Hello, As explained in this bug report [1] the branch naming convention of Automake, can be really confusing for contributors. To fix that, I would like to change the branch naming convention like this:
- minor -> master (default) - micro -> maint - master -> next Given that the master branch is locked, I can't do that change myself. As I a consequence I would like the Savannah hackers to proceed with it. I am fully aware that this might pertube existing contributors that already have cloned the repository. However Automake has only a small number of contributors, so this won't impact a lot of people. I strongly believe this change will improve the experience of newcomers. In case of doubt, this renaming won't result in any suppression of history. Thanks. -- Mathieu Lirzin GPG: F2A3 8D7E EB2B 6640 5761 070D 0ADE E100 9460 4D37 [1] https://debbugs.gnu.org/cgi/bugreport.cgi?bug=13578#199
