What is this project ?

This project is NOT the official tclap repository.

It is a fork of tclap sources hosted at https://sourceforge.net/p/tclap/code.

It is used as staging area to maintain and test patches that will be contributed back to the official repository.

What is the branch naming convention ?

Each branch is named following the pattern slicer-YYYY-MM-DD-vY.Y.Z-SHA{N}

where:

• vX.Y.Z is the version of the forked project
• YYYY-MM-DD is the date of the last official commit associated with the branch.
• SHA{N} are the first N characters of the last official commit associated with the branch.
