## Branching Model
We use the following branching model:
* `stable` is a branch containing the content of the latest release. Building
from here is the same as building from the latest tarball, or installing a
binary package. No development is done on the `stable` branch.
* `develop` is the current development branch. All work is done here, and upon
release it will be merged to `stable`. While development branch is not
stable, we utilize CI to ensure we're at least not merging improvements that
break existing tests, and hence should be relatively safe. We still recommend
making backups when using the development branch.
## Installing
There are many binary packages available, but to install from source requires:
* git
* cmake
* make
* C++ compiler, currently gcc 7.1+ or clang 5.0+ for full C++17 support
* libuuid
Download the tarball, and expand it:
$ curl -O https://taskwarrior.org/download/task-2.6.2.tar.gz
$ tar xzf task-2.6.2.tar.gz
$ cd task-2.6.2
Or clone this repository:
$ git clone --recursive -b stable https://github.com/GothenburgBitFactory/taskwarrior.git
$ cd taskwarrior
Then build:
$ cmake -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=release .
...
$ make
...
[$ make test]
...
$ sudo make install
