| # Long Term Support (LTS) Branches |
| This repository contains periodic snapshots of the Abseil codebase that are |
| Long Term Support (LTS) branches. An LTS branch allows you to use a known |
| version of Abseil without interfering with other projects which may also, in |
| turn, use Abseil. (For more information about our releases, see the |
| [Abseil Release Management](https://abseil.io/about/releases) guide.) |
| The following lists LTS branches and the dates on which they have been released: |
