main branch

All current development occurs on the main branch. All new feature development should use feature flag to gate it off during development, and turn it on once the development is complete and passed the AIP process when it applies.

devnet branch

The devnet branch is created of the main branch every week. It will be used to deploy devnet and allow Aptos community to explore the most recent changes of the Aptos node binary and Aptos framework.

aptos-release-vX.Y release branches

These are release branches based on Aptos release planning timeline. They are created off the main branch. Release branches are created on every 1-2 months cadence.

aptos-node-vX.Y.Z release tag

The aptos node release tags are created for validator/fullnode deployment of the given release branch. The minor number Z will increment when a new hot-fix release is required on this release branch. Aptos team will publish the matching tag docker images on Aptos Docker Hub when available.

aptos-framework-vX.Y.Z release tag

The aptos framework release tags are created to facilitate the on-chain framework upgrade of the given release branch. The minor number Z will increment when a new hot-fix release or a new framework update is required on this release branch.

aptos-cli-vX.Y.Z release tag

The aptos cli release tags are created to track the CLI versions for community to use when developing on the Aptos network. It's always recommended to upgrade your CLI when a new version is released, for the best user experience.
