Wrong name of the release branch for MSL 4.1.0 (and following bug fix versions) #4361

Closed dietmarw closed 3 months ago

dietmarw commented 3 months ago

It seems that whoever created the release branch for MSL version 4.1.0 under maint/4.1.0 did not read the guidelines under:

https://doc.modelica.org/Modelica%204.0.0/Resources/helpDymola/Modelica_UsersGuide_ReleaseNotes.html#Modelica.UsersGuide.ReleaseNotes.VersionManagement

It needs to be maint/4.1.x since otherwise there will be:

  1. confusion as to what is the tag and what a branch
  2. There is no place for future bug fixes to live and releases to be cut from in the 4.1.x series.

This needs to be rectified as soon as possible.

Thank you very much @dietmarw for your kind explanation, you're 100% right. I have renamed the branch from maint\4.1.0 to maint\4.1.x and hope that no complications will occur. However, a slightly more polite conversational tone would be highly appreciated. Best regards, Toni
