Ah, I thought you were at +2. But I don't think we will run into too
much trouble, even although we do depend (a tiny bit) on EGit.

Anyway, I will update the URL in our Mars target platform.

That being said, I assume updates-stable-nightly will publish 4.0
previews after 3.6 is officially out, right?

no, after 3.6 has been released we'll use updates-stable-nightly for potentially upcoming patches

which may deserve a 3.6.x service release. Work for 3.7 will continue on the master branch. 

3.7 is planned for Feb 2015. Builds from the master branch are always available here

http://download.eclipse.org/egit/updates-nightly

We fork master to the next version's stable-x branch at the time we submit the IP log

for review (usually 3-4 weeks before the release). This is announced here on this list.

I will setup another branch to allow starting to work on breaking changes for 4.0 soon

and add another build and update site for the work on 4.0.
