Just curious,
lately I saw two sets of merges in the log from stable to gui-release and
then gui-release back to stable (changesets 18695:7c78430535db and
18761:dff05c124017)
Earlier on it would be stable -> gui-release followed by gui-release ->
default.
Is it just cosmetic (typo)? I suppose so as the default branch parent was a
very recent changeset.
