When we begin work on a new manual release, we create a branch. The branch contains all the files needed by the authors and contributors. Every author or group of authors is working on their own section or chapter and they are responsible for writing new material or modify the existing content. Each file is saved as a LaTeX file with the extension <tt>.tex</tt> (<i>i.e.</i>, <tt>filename.tex</tt>). When the author modifies the file(s) and wants to share the changes with others, he/she commits the LaTeX file(s) to the branch. Other contributors pull or download the latest branch revision containing the newly modified files.
