I cloned the Julia git repository and made a build. I get 1.3.0-DEV.63  
Perhaps a stupid question - is there a stable 1.2.0 release?  
I can see a branch called backports-release-1-2

I guess what I am asking is what is the latest stable but not DEV release?

1.1 is the latest stable release.

1.2 is in preparation phase for a release candidate.

If you want to test the branch that will eventually become 1.2, I you could check out `release-1.2`, or wait for the announcement of a release candidate.
