This fixes some URLs I omitted from my previous pass, notably those in lists.gnu.org. Although lists.gnu.org does not yet support TLS 1.1, TLS 1.0 is better than nothing. * lisp/erc/erc.el (erc-official-location): * lisp/mail/emacsbug.el (report-emacs-bug): Use https:, not http:.

GNU EMACS VERSIONING -*- org -*-

Ref: https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-devel/2014-09/msg00872.html
|
||
|
||
Emacs version numbers have the form
|
||
|
||
major.minor[.devel].build
|
||
|
||
"build" increments each time Emacs is built in the same location
|
||
(without cleaning) and isn't really part of the version.
|
||
|
||
Bugfix releases increase "minor" by 1.
|
||
Non-bugfix releases increase "major" by 1, and reset "minor" to 1.
|
||
(The division between bugfix and non-bugfix has not always been clear
|
||
historically.)
|
||
|
||
Unreleased (development) versions have an extra "devel" component.
|
||
This is a fairly meaningless number that may be unchanged for a long time.
|
||
It is normally 50.
|
||
|
||
After we cut the release branch, we’ll make pretest and release
|
||
candidate (RC) releases. For pretest releases, the "devel" component
|
||
changes to 90, 91, ... When the first RC release is made, this
|
||
component is removed. Normally, there is one RC release, unless an
|
||
unexpected last-minute problem occurs.
|
||
|
||
The development version for a new major release has "minor" = 0.
|
||
The development version for a new minor release has "minor" = that of
|
||
the previous release.
