Quarterly is the name for Ports branches cut from HEAD at the beginning of |
| 511 |
every (yearly) quarter in January, April, July, and October, and the name for |
| 512 |
the binary package sets that are produced from these branches. |
| 513 |
|
| 514 |
The quarterly branch provides users with a more predictable and stable |
| 515 |
experience for port and package installation and upgrades. This is done |
| 516 |
essentially by only allowing non-feature updates. Quarterly branches aim to |
| 517 |
receive security fixes (that may be version updates, or backports of commits), |
| 518 |
bug fixes and ports compliance or framework changes. |
