Feature - the following functions would be useful: top(), bottom(), left(), right()

[scottrippey]

I've implemented these functions.
Please see #1100 for use cases and more info.

Nice, but I think that would be better if the pull request was for the 1_4_0 branch.. ;)

[scottrippey]

Ok, I can do that. But can you explain the 2 branches?

[scottrippey]

I will make the changes to the appropriate branch.

[scottrippey]

I created a 1_4_0 pull request, #1112.
@gustavohenke I'm under the impression that "master" is for 1.3.3? And all new features are always committed to a branch, until stable?

[gustavohenke]

@agatronic told me that commits to master for now will be only for serious bug fixes. New features = 1_4_0.

[gustavohenke]

And yes, master is the 1.3.3 stable version.

[lukeapage]

at the same time simple changes are easy to rebase.

I'm thinking of moving 1_4_0 to main and deleting the 1_4_0 branch relatively soon, so I guess that advice only applies to things that might have changed already in 1.4.0 and things that will definitely be accepted into 1.4.0

[lukeapage]

p.s. this was only done for 1.4.0 in order to give people somewhere to experiment with some of the big changes planned for 1.4.0 - it isn't normal.

@agatronic @gustavohenke Thanks for the explanation! I'm excited to start contributing!
