Go 1.3.3 is released

[Andrew Gerrand]

Hi gophers,

We've just released Go version 1.3.3, a minor point release.

This release fixes the issues introduced by the previous 1.3.2 release.

    https://golang.org/doc/devel/release.html#go1.3.minor

You can download binary and source distributions from the Go web site:

    https://golang.org/dl/

To compile from source using a Mercurial checkout, update to the release with "hg update release" and build as usual.

Thanks to everyone who contributed to the release.

Andrew

I can confirm the issues I reported for windows/386 and windows/amd64 with Go 1.3.2 are fixed in 1.3.3. 

Thank you, Russ and the Go team for the fast turnaround. You guys are awesome.

Cheers! Talk about fast releases!

Or use

hg pull -u

To save time

This piqued my curiosity, when I run:

$ hg pull -u -r tip
pulling from https://code.google.com/p/go
searching for changes
no changes found

I get:

$ hg summary
parent: 21322:f44017549ff9 go1.3.3 release
 go1.3.3
branch: release-branch.go1.3
commit: (clean)
update: (current)

Is there a single command equivalent to:

$ hg pull
$ hg update tip

'tip' is a footgun, it is the HEAD of the current branch you are on.

hg pull -u -r default will put you at the HEAD of the default branch.

What branch is "tip" in?

I've tried:

$ hg pull -u -r default

pulling from https://code.google.com/p/go
searching for changes
no changes found

$ hg summary

parent: 21322:f44017549ff9 go1.3.3 release
 go1.3.3
branch: release-branch.go1.3
commit: (clean)
update: (current)

$ hg pull -u -b tip

pulling from https://code.google.com/p/go
abort: unknown branch 'tip'!

$ hg pull -u -B tip

pulling from https://code.google.com/p/go
abort: remote bookmark tip not found!

Anyway, I wouldn't want to waste any more of your time.

Thanks, for the tip!

Repeating what Dave said:

"'tip' is a footgun, it is the HEAD of the current branch you are on."

emphasis on __the current branch you are on__

This is one of the bizarre things about hg, hg update tip _generally_
does what you would expect, except for when it doesn't.

All credit to Andrew Gerrand for educating me that the name of the
default branch is 'default'.
