Sorry if this question is borderline user.
Using monetdb-install.sh, what does --nightly=stable actually contain? What does --nightly=current contain?
We maintain "two" main branches. The HEAD of the repository, is where all development is made. We refer to it as "current". The "stable" branch is where the releases are made from, and contains only (bug)fixes, no new features.
Do the nightly tar files contain source from a sucessful build or simply a CVS checkout?
I'm not 100% sure, but I believe they contain the last known successful compilation of a CVS checkout.
Is a cross-reference between bug number and --nightly=<target> maintained?
No. Unfortunately, we don't have a ChangeLog file either which allows for easy inspection of inclusion of a bug.
