Guido Günther<p>After lots of cleanup over the past <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/phoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phoc</span></a> releases I'm inclined to switch <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/phoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phoc</span></a>'s main branch to track <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/wlroots" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wlroots</span></a> git rather than the latest stable version as I can then catch up with new wlroots features faster. Stable releases would then be cut from a wlroots-0.xy branch tracking the stable wlroots version. Good idea? </p><p><a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/phosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phosh</span></a> <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/bananui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bananui</span></a></p>

Guido Günther<p>There is a long standing issue in <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/phoc" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phoc</span></a> (the <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/wayland" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>wayland</span></a> compositor used with <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/phosh" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>phosh</span></a> (but as I recently learned also other projects like <a href="https://social.librem.one/tags/bananui" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>bananui</span></a>) that makes windows flip their size when crossing a screen edge (as tiling is (incorrectly) kicking in).
