Once an hour, an automated snapshot is made from the git server
2008-04-24 13:17:29 +04:00
source tree. These snapshots should be usable, but we make no guarantees
2014-01-14 20:49:50 +04:00
about their stability; furthermore, they should NOT be
considered formal releases, and they may have transient security
problems that will not be assigned a CVE.

In the git repository are several stable maintenance branches,
matching the
pattern < code > v< i > major< / i > .< i > minor< / i > .< i > micro< / i > -maint< / code > ;
these branches are forked off the corresponding
< code > v< i > major< / i > .< i > minor< / i > .< i > micro< / i > < / code > formal
release, and may have further releases of the
form < code > v< i > major< / i > .< i > minor< / i > .< i > micro< / i > .< i > rel< / i > < / code > .
These maintenance branches should only contain bug fixes, and no
new features, backported from the master branch, and are
supported as long as at least one downstream distribution
expresses interest in a given branch. These maintenance
branches are considered during CVE analysis.

The guide is both a learning tool for developing with libvirt and an
API reference document. It is a work in progress, composed by a
professional author from contributions written by members of the
libvirt team.
