Stable branch is snapped from '''testing''' | There is no solid rule indicating when Stable branch is snapped from '''testing'''. It can be anything from one to four weeks. The packages on stable branch are the default repositories used by Manjaro systems to provide updates and downloads to the general user base. The best indication will be to watch the [https://forum.manjaro.org/c/announcements/testing-updates Testing Announment thread] to follow possible issues with specific software or hardware. | ||

Testing branch is snapped from '''unstable''' at irregular intervals - but usually shortly after the syncronization from Arch stable. This branch is used as a testing area for packages build by Manjaro developers such as kernels, kernel modules, nvidia graphics, software patches, Manjaro inhouse applications. The package may be subject to further checks by developers and testers for potential bugs and/or stability issues, prior to being released to the '''stable''' branch. Testing branch is for the knowledgeable user looking for a way to contribute to keep Manjaro running at it's best. | Testing branch is snapped from '''unstable''' at irregular intervals - but usually shortly after the syncronization from Arch stable.
