Hi all,

Thanks to our sponsor Barquin, I'm able to spend some time on Hobo again for the first time in ages. I'm working on Rails 3.1 compatibility.

As part of this project, we decided it was time to straighten out the branch names, so I'm about to make some changes. I thought I better let you know.

Here are the changes:

1. The branch currently named rails3 will no longer be used. We will make a new branch off rails3 called '1-3-stable' . This is the branch where maintenance work on Hobo 1.3 will take place.

The reason we are keeping rails3 is that many people have

    gem 'hobo', :git => 'git://github.com/tablatom/hobo.git', :branch => 'rails3'

in their Gemfile. Note you will no longer be on "edge Hobo 1.3" if you have that line, you will be stuck at the point we are at today. To keep up with latest commits to Hobo 1.3, change that to :branch => '1-3-stable'

HELLO COMMITTERS - please don't commit to rails3 anymore! 

2. The current master branch will be renamed to '1-1-stable'. This is the branch where maintenance work on Hobo 1.1 will take place.

3. The recently created 'hobo-1.4' branch will become 'master'

We should have a 1.4 pre 1 release fairly soon (i.e. works with Rails 3.1). I'm not saying it will work very well, but it will work a bit : )

Tom

Tis done. No more commits on rails3 please : )

If anyone gets an error when pulling, try the -f flag

So does this mean there are plans to release 1.1?

Great! So glad to see you back, Tom!

I have been a Hobo user for approximately since the Earth cooled! I have a private app in commercial use that has been serving customers for several years.

I am a giant fan and look forward to what comes next.

Errr. Good point! Bryan?

Yes, I think the plan is to quietly release 1.1.0 at the same time as
1.3.0. Does anybody have any problems with 1.1.0.pre4?
