[TYPO3-timtab] Timtab SVN

[Rajesh Duggal]

Team,
I noticed there isn't an svn tag for 0.5.11.

http://typo3xdev.svn.sourceforge.net/viewvc/typo3xdev/tx_timtab/tags/

Is there a standard way typo3 TER expects versioning?  Or some
other reason there isn't a 0.5.11 tag?

Generally, svn tags are supposed to act as read-only snapshots of
the code base.  So usually, we have a tag for each released version
(e.g. perhaps everytime we release to TER we create an svn tag, as a
reference of what that version contained)

--

Also, usually, it's best to keep the stable version in the trunk,
and when building out major functionality, we create an svn branch
do the work there (until it becomes stable again).
(Bug fixes continue to be applied to the trunk
on the current stable version. ) Once the new major feature is complete
we tag the trunk (to reference the final release of the current version)
and merge the dev branch down to the trunk.

i.e. we use svn branches to let us checkin unstable dev code.

So typically the best (most stable) version to use is always at the 
trunk.
Which should be tagged and uploaded to TER after we are confident that 
the
latest changes are stable.

What do you think?
