Re: [orca-list] Current Orca Version?

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

Well, since I maintain the AUR PKGBUILD for orca-git, I need to figure
out a different way to retrieve the current and correct version number
when pulling from git.

Also, I wasn't aware of different branches in git right now. I did not
see these other branches when I listed them. Maybe I need to review
git commands again <sigh>. Would this mean that my current git pull of
Orca dies not include 3.14 changes?
