If I understand you correctly, the developmental changes occurring between releases (every little step change/test) won’t be visible to us, just the final results in the form of the release code? (All corrections/clarifications accepted, hell, requested). We’d still be able to compile, but we wouldn’t necessarily have code for those small, incremental changes.
It’s always been like this for most repositories that make up Android. The few projects that were truly developed in the open, such as ART, will now follow the same private branches as the rest of Android.
Correct. We will, of course, be able to create diffs between the released versions, for the whole project or for individual files (assuming they haven’t moved around).
