[Marble-devel] Does 4.14 contain all the code it should?

Hi,

we try to avoid merging to keep the history readable (as linear as 
possible). Bugfixes to KDE/* branches are cherry-picked to other 
branches as needed, just as we cherry-pick bugfixes from master to KDE/* 
branches for backporting. Therefore I see no need for a merge. The 
conflicts make sense:
- changes to the windows NSIS installer (wouldn't expect a conflict 
here, but I'll forward-port that as needed when doing the 1.9 Windows 
installer)
- version numbers in the branches are both bumped after the branch 
point, hence conflict (src/apps/marble-ui/ControlView.cpp, 
src/lib/marble/CMakeLists.txt, src/lib/marble/MarbleGlobal.h)
- the code of PopupLayer was refactored, so a bugfix that came 
afterwards needed adjustment when it was backported. That cannot be 
merged back to newer code.

Regards,
Dennis
