Question: You know Måneskin? A great band imo, great singer. youtube.com/watch?v=QN1odfjtMoo Asked by Sven (146.70.42.x) on August 8 2022, 10:26am Reply on August 9 2022, 4:06pm: I don't, will check them out though. Comment... Question: Can you explain your workflow of creating branches for specific features and then making custom builds that include some of those features. I don't really understand how you merge all stuff and keep everything sane. Do you have some automation system for this? How does the naming of branches / builds work? Thanks Asked by nikolalkc (88.172.223.x) on August 6 2022, 11:32pm Reply on August 7 2022, 3:16am: We use pre_ for branches that go in prereleases. Then we keep a branch called dev-pub which when we want to do +dev builds include all of the pre_ branches. When we want to do a build, we put a special commit on the end (WANT_BUILD version_number), and push that to a branch named want_build, which has machines watching it and ready to build on demand. Once a pre_ branch is ready-ish to go to release, we merge it to our main branch. Sometiems two pre_ branches end up intertwined, we'll merge them, or keep one dependent on the other, in order to avoid continual conflicts. 3 Comments...

Question: Hello -- I've been using your products, from Winamp to Reaper, for most of my life. From the bottom of my heart, thanks. Now to the question -- I also live in New York, and was lucky enough to work as a full-time musician and producer (even held a couple Reaper meetups, mostly advocating for using it in professional environments) until COVID hit.
