Out of curiosity - was the 1.9.6 tag moved on Github?

OK.I jumped the gun - pulled the code down from Github about four days ago and checked out the tag 1.9.6. Then I ran$ php setup/cli/manage.php deploy --setup /var/www/htdocs/osticket/as described in the README.txt file to deploy the code.I checked the new code which is directly downloaded from Os ticket and there are (small fix looking) changes. So was the 1.9.6 tag moved on Github.The reason I'd like to ask is because I'd like to keep a src/ directory up-to-date with the latest pulls from Github - and switch to a tag release and run the deploy code to keep the code up-to-date. This would probably be easier then deleting all the code and replacing it for every upgrade. This method is similar to the one described in the README to keep the up-to-date with the bleeding edge version - except I'll be working from a specific tag instead of the tip of the development branch.So - if the 1.9.6 tag was moved on Github then it would still be feasible - if it hasn't then I'm missing something!Cheers,Kevin B

Kevin,We debated moving the tag but decided against it... I'll recommend using the tip of develop branch. Bleeding edge version is on develop-next but I won't recommend using it on production just yet (DP release is planned).

Hi Peter,Thanks for the feedback.Ah - so the 1.9.6 released on Osticket has had a few fixes added since the 1.9.6 tag on Github. Thanks for clearing that up.For production I'll stick to the releases from Osticket!Thanks again Peter - and thanks for the release - hopefully I can be of some help RE feedback/bug reports etc.Kevin

One thing which is puzzling. If I pull down the Github repo - stay on the current development branch and from the directory run:$ php setup/cli/manage.php deploy --setup ../built_site_develop/I will get a site built. Say I then pull down the latest 1.9.6 from OST and compare the files/directories there are quite a few differences. Is there any explanation why?osticket@whizzer4:~/tmp/latest_github/github2/zip_from_ost$ diff -rq upload/ ../built_site_develop/Only in ../built_site_develop/: appsOnly in upload/assets/default: about-custom-themes.mdOnly in ../built_site_develop/assets/default: lessFiles upload/bootstrap.php and ../built_site_develop/bootstrap.php differFiles upload/include/client/header.inc.php and ../built_site_develop/include/client/header.inc.php differFiles upload/include/htmLawed.php and ../built_site_develop/include/htmLawed.php differFiles upload/include/staff/header.inc.php and ../built_site_develop/include/staff/header.inc.php differFiles upload/include/staff/login.header.php and ../built_site_develop/include/staff/login.header.php differFiles upload/scp/ajax.php and ../built_site_develop/scp/ajax.php differFiles upload/scp/apps/dispatcher.php and ../built_site_develop/scp/apps/dispatcher.php differOnly in ../built_site_develop/scp/apps: .htaccessOnly in ../built_site_develop/setup/cli: cleanup-codebase.shFiles upload/setup/cli/modules/deploy.php and ../built_site_develop/setup/cli/modules/deploy.php differFiles upload/setup/inc/header.inc.php and ../built_site_develop/setup/inc/header.inc.php differOnly in ../built_site_develop/setup: scriptsFiles upload/setup/setup.inc.php and ../built_site_develop/setup/setup.inc.php differOnly in ../built_site_develop/setup: testosticket@whizzer4:~/tmp/latest_github/github2/zip_from_ost$And a fuller div is here:
