Branches

master      ->  always contain code from the latest stable version
release-**  ->  code canditate for the next stable version (alpha/beta)
develop     ->  main development branch (nightly)
**other**   ->  features/hotfixes/experimental, probably non-stable code

Building your own

This project uses Apache Ant for the build process. If for some reason you need to build a custom version of JS-Signals install Ant and run:

ant build

This will delete all JS files inside the dist folder, merge/update/compress source files, validate generated code using JSLint and copy the output to the dist folder.

IMPORTANT: dist folder always contain the latest version, regular users should not need to run build task.
