uname discrepancy

[void]

Sources built via 'doas git -C /usr/src checkout stable/14' creates
a system with uname output containing

FreeBSD 14.1-STABLE stable/14-n267809-432c0128bd3d

My question is, why 14.1-STABLE but not 14-STABLE ?

Not sure if it's always been like this and I've just not noticed...

Releng/$VER means that release and only its patch sublevel. For example releng/14.0 says FreeBSD 14.0 patch 6 right now and releng/14.1 says FreeBSD 14.1-BETA3 right now.

Stable/$VER is all the generally stable changes to $VER where $VER might include patch releases as well.

OK thanks
