Hi Daniel

I would say, that if you absolutely need a productive environment, then you 
should stick to the official releases, rather then the latest and greatest, as 
sad as that might sound.

Conversely, if things break the next time you do a git pull, you could pull 
from a previous version to see if it is still broken.

It's bleeding edge for a reason!
