Re: [PHP-DEV] A suggestion regarding stabel vs. experimental on the extension level From: Rasmus Lerdorf (rasmus <email protected>)
Date: 11/16/00

The main problem with this is that you can't really move files around in
CVS nicely without some ugly hacks or without losing the revision history
for those files. I would rather see some sort of indicator put into an
ext/ directory that simply prevents it from being included in a release.
eg. ext/foo/EXPERIMENTAL
We can simply check for that file and not include the extension if it is
there. That eliminates the need for shuffling files around in the CVS
repository.
