[Freeciv-Dev] Managing Long-Term Changes

[Chris Richards <chrisr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Howdy.

How do ya'll manage long-term changes?  I am getting the impression
that a bunch of patches are sitting somewhere outside of the
repository and if you work on that section, you apply the patches.

Is this at all accurate?  If it is, have you considered using cvs
branching to do that?  (For example, branching for "generalized
improvements".)  When it is complete (or near enough as open-source
gets), then re-merge the branch back into the main dev line.

Thanks in advance.

Still figuring out the ropes,
