## (Flow of changes)
|
|
|
|
Most contributions are based on and merged into these branches:
|
|
|
|
* `master` is the main branch where all small contributions go
|
|
* `staging` is branched from master, changes that have a big impact on
|
|
Hydra builds go to this branch
|
|
* `staging-next` is branched from staging and only fixes to stabilize
|
|
and security fixes with a big impact on Hydra builds should be
|
|
contributed to this branch. This branch is merged into master when
|
|
deemed of sufficiently high quality
|
