Release notes
SWAT+ releases are tagged on the GitHub releases page. Each tag corresponds to a Zenodo DOI under the concept DOI 10.5281/zenodo.14983534.
Versioning¶
Releases are identified by a git tag. Tag names look like 61.0 or 61.1 for the current series, and earlier revisions in the reference data appear as 60.5.7. The tag is read at configure time by git describe --tags (see CMakeLists.txt) and projected into the executable name and into the banner string in main.f90.
The executable name produced by CMake follows the pattern:
where <compiler> is gnu, ifo (Intel ifort), or ifx (Intel LLVM), and <arch> is the host architecture. On Windows the executable has a .exe extension. This is defined in CMakeLists.txt as:
A build between tags resolves to a git describe string of the form <tag>-<n>-g<sha>, for example 61.1-1-g92b4413. See doc/Tagging.md in the source repository.
Tagging policy¶
See Tagging and releases in the developer guide for the rules a contributor follows when cutting a new tag.
Where to find what changed¶
For each release, the GitHub release page lists merged pull requests since the previous tag. The full commit history is available via:
A change log curated for users (input file changes, output format changes, behaviour changes) is maintained in this section as releases are cut.
