Users of the official Goldie releases can safely ignore these notes.
If you don't know what "trunk" is, then don't worry about it, these notes
don't apply to you.
</p>

<p>
Using a trunk version of Goldie is not recommended. However, if you wish
to use the trunk anyway, there are a few things you should be aware of:
</p>

<ul>
<li>
<p>
The documentation (except for this "If You Use Trunk" notice) may be
out-of-date for you. 
</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>
All the usual caveats and potential problems of using trunk software
apply (if you're using trunk, you already know what those issues are).
</p>
</li>

<li>
<p>
<em>** IMPORTANT **</em>: Instead of the revision of SemiTwist D Tools mentioned
in this documentation, you will need to use whatever SemiTwist D
Tools revision was the most recent one before the date and time that
your revision of Goldie was committed.
</p>

<p>
Yes, that is complicated. In fact, that is the main reason using
Goldie trunk is not recommended. However, this issue only exists
because SemiTwist D Tools is still in an early state. This will
change as SemiTwist D Tools matures. 
</p>
</li>
</ul>

<p>
If you're ok with all of this, then feel free to use Goldie trunk.

<h3>A Note About the SVN Comments</h3>
<p>
Most of the messages on the SVN commits start with a prefix of either
[$ident|(B)$] or [$ident|(NB)$]:
</p>
<p>
[$ident|(B)$]: Breaking changes
(ie, "This commit may include breaking changes.")
</p>
<p>
[$ident|(NB)$]: Non-Breaking changes
(ie, "Unless I messed up, this commit contains non-breaking changes only.")
</p>
<p>
Be aware though, that even a [$ident|(NB)$] revision might still require
static-style languages to be re-generated with [$pageTitle|StaticLang$].
</p>
