The "'''development'''" branch contains code for buildiso to build a '''RC''' or '''pre''' release install-media. Additionally, it contains more ManjaroISO profiles.

Attention: Not all ManjaroISO profiles in the "development" branch work and it can contain more bugs. Usually, it is updated more often, too.

Unfortunately, I do not know enough about <code>git</code> to tell you how you can "update" the cloned files in your <code>~/work/manjaroiso</code> directory. Somebody who knows, can edit this paragraph.
Immediately after you have cloned the code from Github - as described in the last chapter - your ManjaroISO is up-to-date. When you wait a couple of days or longer, it is recommended to update.
 
An update pulls the latest changes from Github and puts them in your <code>~/work/manjaroiso</code> directory. Therefore, the following commands make sense.
 
First, you have to make sure you are in the directory you cloned the code from Github:
 
cd ~/work/manjaroiso
 
 
Use this "update" command, if you cloned from the master branch:
 
git pull origin master
 
Use this "update" command, if you cloned from the development branch:
 
git pull origin development
 
 
These "update" commands do '''not''' overwrite any changes you have made to files.

In comparison to the other way to install [[ManjaroISO]], there are a couple more files and directories in your <code>~/work/manjaroiso/</code> folder. But other than that, everything works the same.

Now, you can modify your ManjaroISO profile and use buildiso to build your own install-media as described [https://wiki.manjaro.org/index.php?title=ManjaroISO#Modifying_a_ManjaroISO_Profile here].
