So there is a many to one relationship between versions from a particular code branch to an AUS disk location. Eg: The Mozilla1.8 branch is being used for developement of v2 and will have versions 2.0a1, a2, b1,b2, RC1, ... and finally 2.0. The situation with the Mozilla1.8.0 branch needs fixing up ([https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328497 Bug 328497] | So there is a many to one relationship between versions from a particular code branch to an AUS disk location.

The situation with the Mozilla1.8.0 branch needs fixing up (partly [https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=328497 Bug 328497]), an $update_version of "1.5.x.y" would be flexible. | ||
