    No worries. They’ll just ship a development version to your machine and see what happens. That should be a good enough test.

      In software development the main branch is the version which the clients update to.

      Before pushing updates to the main branch, they should be forked to a test branch.

      Microsoft is pushing out updates without properly testing them, resulting in a lot of avoidable bugs.

        No, the main branch should be at HEAD, and releases ought to be a few commits back, when it was tested and considered stable enough. Maybe that’s the joke, they’re doing it at unstable points.

        Main branch is a common choice for the root fork of a git development repository. It was master, but it is a poor choice when respecting freed men from slavery.

          Right. I was dumbing it right down without overcomplicating it.

      I uploaded it to ImageBB because Imgur was not available for everyone apparently, so this is kinda weird. However, here is an Imgur version for you:

        I don’t know if this works on programming.dev, but usually you can upload pictures on lemmy.
