# Version Updates
LAMMPS follows a continuous release development model. We aim to keep
the development version (develop branch) always fully functional and
the development version (`develop` branch) always fully functional and
employ a variety of automatic testing procedures to detect failures
of existing functionality from adding or modifying features. Most of
those tests are run on pull requests *before* merging to the development
branch. The develop branch is protected, so all changes *must* be
those tests are run on pull requests *before* merging to the `develop`
branch. The `develop` branch is protected, so all changes *must* be
submitted as a pull request and thus cannot avoid the automated tests.
Additional tests are run *after* merging. Before releases are made
*all* tests must have cleared. Then a release tag is applied and the
release branch fast-forwarded to that tag. Bug fixes and updates are
applied to the current development branch and thus will be available in
the next (patch) release. For stable releases, selected bug fixes are
back-ported and occasionally published as update releases. There are
only updates to the latest stable release.
`release` branch is fast-forwarded to that tag. This is often referred
to as a patch release. Bug fixes and updates are
applied first to the `develop` branch. Later, they appear in the `release`
branch when the next patch release occurs.
For stable releases, selected bug fixes, updates, and new functionality
are pushed to the `stable` branch and a new stable tag is applied.
