Git release tag question

General Development
#1

Hi guyz,

We use retroarch to play netplay; Client are: macosx, linux, windows

Macos binary download come with retroarch 1.0.0.2 / mednafen 0.9.28

But our linux (archlinux) have 0.9.33.3 version (using lastest git commit i presume)

I can’t see any tags on git for released retroarch and libretro main version.

How to compile an older version and or an unified version for all device @anytime from a “RELEASE” branch ?

thanks,

We don’t do releases on separate branches or maintain “stable” and “unstable/development” branches. On desktop, it’s really a “prefer the latest version from Git” model. Consoles and mobile tend to get more specific releases, but it’s kinda arbitrary.

You can always settle on certain commits for RetroArch and cores and treat those as your “point release”.
