Dear Galaxy developers,
Currently our production Galaxy runs the stable branch. However, I see one or two reasons to want to run the development (default) branch for a while.
This will involved migrating the database to a later version, which is fine, as migration scripts exists.
What I am wondering is whether it is guaranteed that I will be able to get back onto stable at a later date, i.e. there will be a database migration path from whatever development database version I end up on, onto a future stable database version.
Can anyone comment?
cheers, Simon

Yes, this should not be a problem, eventually the revision you are running will be an ancestor of stable and from there you can just "upgrade" to the new stable.
