Development branch testing
Certain features are developed on special branches which publishes dev APKs just like the regular, stable releases.
You can usually safely switch between stable releases and development releases anytime.
Development/unstable releases may contain more bugs and other issues!
The Settings->Advanced->Update URL settings can be changes to use a different updating branch.
By default, it uses the stable release URL which is: https://api.github.com/repos/damontecres/Wholphin/releases/latest
Changing to an unstable develop branch means replacing the word latest in the URL with the branch's tag name, such as tags/develop: https://api.github.com/repos/damontecres/Wholphin/releases/tags/develop
The most common development release is off of the main branch which contains all of the changes that will go into the next stable release. It can be found here: tags/develop.
Occasionally other branches are created to test new features without impacting users. For example, the experiment MPV backend work was done on a separate branch in [#161(https://github.com/damontecres/Wholphin/pull/161) and published releases under tags/develop-mpv.
