Version confusion

Post by michabbb »

hi,
regarding my comment: http://www.mantisbt.org/bugs/view.php?id=15446#c35090
i am a bit confused about the 1.3.x branch. it seems like i am using an old version but named 1.3.x and found some bugs here and would like to report it.
but at the mantis there is no chance to say anything to 1.3.x - as atrol said, but at github i don´t see a chance to commit any changes, requests or bugs.
so how is this working ? what is the current branch, what is the development branch and where can i find it ?

thank you!

branch master-1.2x = version 1.2.x = latest stable released version
branch master = version 1.3.x = one of the development branches, not stable, not released (no alpha, beta, release candidate, ...)

Submitting a patch to fix an issue is a good idea, as it increases the chances of improvement eventually making it into MantisBT core. All contributions are welcome and greatly appreciated.

Patch submissions can be made in several ways. In the order of preference:

1. Send us a Pull Request on our Github repository [1]
2. Attach a GIT patch to the issue
3. Attach a Unified Diff, clearly specifying the patch's base release

Kindly avoid to upload entire modified PHP files.
Please make sure that your submissions adhere to our Coding Guidelines [2], if they don't your patch might be rejected.

If there are more development related questions I recommend to write to the mantisbt-dev mailing list where more developers are listening [3]
