## Release tracks
|
|
|
|
Continuwuity offers two release tracks to accommodate different needs: tracking the **main branch** of the [repository], and following the **regular release** schedule.
|
|
|
|
### Main branch
|
|
|
|
As Continuwuity is a rapidly evolving software, we encourage deployments to follow the `main` branch where possible to receive the latest bugfixes and features. Commits in main are stable and have been thoroughly tested by the maintainers before merging.
|
|
|
|
To be notified of new updates to main, it is best track the [`/changelog.d`][changelog-d] directory in the repository, which contains changelog snippets from merged pull requests. These may include breaking changes. Then, proceed to update or build Continuwuity according to your deployment method.
|
|
|
|
[repository]: https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity
|
|
[changelog-d]: https://forgejo.ellis.link/continuwuation/continuwuity/src/branch/main/changelog.d
|
|
|
|
### Regular releases
|
|
|
|
Regular releases are periodic, versioned cutoffs from the main branch from time to time, and can be found on the [Releases] page. They are suitable for cases where updating regularly are not suitable or possible (such as when tracking with third-party packaging).
|
|
|
|
For regular releases, **always read the release notes before upgrading to a new version**, as it may contain breaking changes that affect your deployment.
