Hi,


I am Thomas (C programmer) and this is my first post here. :)

First of all:
Thank you so much for the "Magic Lantern" software! <3

I have a meta question about the experimental branches and the current workflow:
The last days I completed the task to compile the current master trunk in a virtual box with Xubuntu 18.04 iso. I mean this master trunk: https://foss.heptapod.net/magic-lantern/magic-lantern/-/tree/branch/unified
But I am little confused because the codes from the master trunk and the latest nightly builds on your website are from the year 2018.

Then I saw that your are busy working on different branches. Some of these branches are active and others are stale branches from 2019 or 2018. I mean this: https://foss.heptapod.net/magic-lantern/magic-lantern/-/branches

What are your plans and ideas about merging these branches into master?

My three Questions:
A.) Does it make sense to change the master trunk code until you finish your work on the branches?
B.) Are you merging the active branches for Lua and Iso into master if you finish them?
C.) What about the branches which are currently staled since 2019 or 2018?

I know your free time is valuable and rare, so you do not have to answer in great detail. Just give a short summary. :)


Thank you so much and best regards,
Thomas
