I've seen a lot of references to:
I tend to think that the next emacs will be Emacs 25, because that's what the git version of emacs calls itself, but I keep hearing about 24.5, even recently from knowledgeable developers.
I've been looking for a source to resolve this, but I haven't found anything.
Which is it? (Would like a source with reliable references.)
The trunk of Emacs' git repository will be released as Emacs 25.1, whenever it is ready. But there is also a branch in git called emacs-24, which gets bug solutions. This might (or might not, who knows) end up in Emacs 24.5. Commits to emacs-24 are merged to trunk from time to time.
