The information in this wiki hasn't been maintained for a good while. Some of the projects described have since been deprecated.

In particular, the "Ushahidi Platform v3.x" section contains information that is often misleading. Many details about this version of Platform have changed since.

This website is an extraction of the original Ushahidi wiki into a static form. Because of that, functions like logging in, commenting or searching will not work.

The Ushahidi Platform code repository located at GitHub comprises 3 main branches:

  • Master - Stable & Production Ready
  • Develop - Latest code changes
  • *Release branches

 

Commit Process:

  1. Core work takes place on the develop branch
  2. When develop is stable enough for release, we create a release branch
  3. At this point a freeze is in place for testing (unit/functional)
    1. No commits to be pushed to the release branch until after testing
  4. AFTER Testing: Bug Fixes can be submitted to the release branch
  5. It is important to note that as soon as a release branch is created all new work on the develop branch targets the 2.6 milestone and beyond (as per the above example). Any 2.5 milestone bugs 'can' be fixed in the release branch. Incomplete 2.5 milestone features should be moved to 2.6 as no new features will be incorporated at this stage.
  6. Release branch is merged with both master and develop
  7. Master branch is tagged with new version
