It just looks a bit abandoned, and it's the branch most people (and git clients) go to first. Example: http://ceph.newdream.net/git/?p=ceph.git;a=summary :) Not sure what to do about it though. weird seeing the "stable" branch be 3 months old too. http://ceph.newdream.net/git/?p=ceph.git;a=shortlog;h=refs/heads/stable I think it'd be nice to see each tagged release get merged to stable, and perhaps unstable commits on master? Not sure. sorry to complain, just trying to help :) John. > > On Wed, Jan 26, 2011 at 1:16 PM, John Leach <john@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > > Hi, > > > > what's the master branch used for in the git repository?
