Branches

We use a topic-based workflow as documented here and thus define integration branches:

• release: Latest release or release candidate.
• master: Release preparation; starting point for new features (default)
• next: Development; new features published here first

We also provide additional branches:

• nightly: Follows next, updated at 01:00 UTC
• nightly-master: Follows master, updated at 01:00 UTC
• dashboard: Dashboard script (setup a CDash client)
• hooks: Local commit hooks (place in .git/hooks)
