GitHub intimidates me. Not gonna lie.
Is there a link that will always have the latest available version of 3.0.3.8 M.B. on it? Meaning it gets updated with any revisions?
I feel like every time it gets revised, a new link is listed on GitHub. I only say that because I feel like I have to open tree after tree to reveal the Easter egg I'm looking for which is the download file.

No that's not how versioning of anything works. The whole point of a version number is that it changes when the code changes.

Any revisions would change the version number.

Paul, where would one see the version number? There has been many ongoing revisions and fixes to the 3.0.3.8 Maintenance Branch since the project started and I'm unable to see which one I have each time. In fact there have been so many fixes, changes etc...that Daniel was asking about releasing it as 3.0.3.9 which to my understanding never did take place.
FWIW...All my new installs have been 3.0.3.8 M.B. simply because I love the version and it's compatibility with OCMod, php8 etc.. etc. I can just never tell where I am as far as latest releases with it.

Yep, that's a bit of a problem isn't it - it seems proper version numbers have been abandoned.

Well, the latest OC-3 release has been named: define('VERSION', '3.0.3.9'), just to mention it.

That branch has yet to be release and I wouldn't assume it's a 'PATCH version' despite what Versioning section in the OpenCart README.md says. It's likely to not be compatible with themes and extensions for 3.0.3.8.

Well, one could simply ask one of the Contributors like TheCartpenter, if some fundamental changes have been made, to be sure, that this Version will still be able to work with known OC v.3.0.3.8 Extensions and Themes. ;)

There will be number of 3rd party extensions written for OC 3.0.3.8 which won't work for the OC 3.0.3.9, especially when OCmod or VQmod is used. IMHO OC 3.0.3.9 should have been named 3.1.0.0 to reflect the changes done by TheCartpenter. It's always good to do a backup first, and then to try it out with all the needed extensions.

There is a much higher chance that extension written for 3.0.3.8 will also work for 3.0.x.x_Maintenance !

Well, the latest 3.0.x.x_Maintenance is now numbered v.3.0.3.9, as I found out: ;)

That's not the 3.0.x.x_Maintenance branch and it's only numbered 3.0.3.9 due to a misunderstanding between the developers. It was correctly numbered 3.1.1.0 before. https://github.com/opencart/opencart-3/issues/108
