Hello,

Are there stable branches or labels in the PDFium repository? I am planning to build a pdfium DLL and I would like to pick a relative safe commit. I see there are chromium/xxxx branches, are these branches stabilized and related somehow with Chromium releases?

Thank you,
Gilberto

P.S. How is pdfium pronounced?

Some believe the PDFium branch used by the stable Chromium release is
more stable. e.g. the current stable Chromium release is
67.0.3396.xx, so the corresponding PDFium branch is
https://pdfium.googlesource.com/pdfium/+/chromium/3396 .

AFAIK, "PDFium" is pronounced "pee-dee-eff-eee-um".

I use this to track the stable ones:
git checkout "chromium/$(curl
https://omahaproxy.appspot.com/linux?channel=stable | cut -d'.' -f 3)"

I try to do that here: https://github.com/sandsmark/pdfium

It automatically builds on
https://ci.appveyor.com/project/sandsmark/pdfium, and you can download
artifacts from there.
