<h4>Development branches</h4>
<div class="warningbox">FreeCol no longer normally uses a trunk branch.</div>
<p align="justify">We are sometimes developing two versions of FreeCol at the same time: the
main/trunk version and a stable branch. The former will be released as FreeCol x.0 and
will probably be buggy for some time, while the latter is used for creating stable
releases. Usually though only the trunk is being worked on.</p>
master version and a stable branch. The former will contain the in development version and
will probably be buggy for some time, while the latter is only updated when creating stable
releases and rarely when preparing bugfixes for next stable release.
Usually, only the master branch is being worked on though.</p>
<h4>Download
and Build</h4>
<p align="justify">There are several ways to download a git repository for FreeCol available
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/freecol/git/">here</a>. In order to compile the game
<a href="https://sourceforge.net/p/freecol/git/">here</a> and at the occasionally updated
<a href="https://github.com/FreeCol/freecol">mirror</a>. In order to compile the game
you will need a <strong>Java Virtual Machine version 1.8 or higher</strong> and a recent
version of <a href="http://ant.apache.org">Ant</a>.</p>
