Branches:

  • master is used to develop (it is not always stable)
  • stable is used in preparation for releases (in theory it should always be stable)
  • tags in stable refer to releases

You should not build from the master branch. If you want to build the latest release you should take stable and reset it to the latest release tag (1.4 for instance). If you want to build Cinnamon git-latest, you should use the latest state of the stable branch.
