trunk, branches,tags.

Post by philmoz » Sun Oct 09, 2005 2:13 am

Is my understanding of the following correct.
(for reference, see joomla tree)

trunk:- is the copy of code that is continually evolving
- receives merges from latest branch, and so for a while reflects the latest version of code.

branches:- offshoots of trunk (obviously) that encompass development path, and is in effect the working copy

tags:- snapshots of branch at various stages, and generally are the completed items for release.

or have I got something wrong here?
