The GDB 6 branch (gdb_6_0-branch) has been created.
To check out this branch use something like:
$ cvs -z1 -d :pserver:anoncvs@sources.redhat.com:/cvs/src co -r
gdb_6_0-branch gdb+dejagnu
At present the release is scheduled for Sat August 02 (2003-08-02-gmt).
http://www.gnu.org/software/gdb/schedule/
(but at the time of writing the pages weren't yet up-to-date)
The branch commit policy is as follows:
- The `gdb/MAINTAINERS' file still holds.
- Don't fix something on the branch unless/until it is also fixed in the
trunk. If this isn't possible, mentioning it in the `gdb/PROBLEMS' file
is better than committing a hack.
- When considering a patch for the branch, suggested criteria include:
Does it fix a build? Does it fix the sequence break main; run when
debugging a static binary?
- The further a change is from the core of gdb, the less likely the
change will worry anyone (e.g., target specific code).
- Only post a proposal to change the core of gdb after you've sent
individual bribes to all the people listed in the `MAINTAINERS' file ;-)
- Only the very brave or very foolish would try to apply the obvious fix
rule to the branch.
