5Most of the development history of GNU Emacs is available in its
6source code repository <http://savannah.gnu.org/git/?group=emacs>.
7However, in the early days GNU Emacs was developed without using
8version control systems and was published via half-inch 9-track
91600-bpi magnetic tape reels. Although information about this early
10development is sketchy, the following text summarizes what is known.
11
12EMACS started out as a set of macros atop the TECO text editor, and
13was first operational in late 1976. It was inspired by earlier work
14such as the E editor of Stanford, and was based on older TECO macro
15sets. EMACS in turn inspired several similar editors. See:
16Stallman RM. EMACS: The Extensible, Customizable Self-Documenting
17Display Editor. AI Memo 519a, MIT, 1981-03-26
18<http://dspace.mit.edu/bitstream/handle/1721.1/5736/AIM-519A.pdf>.
19
20In 1984, work began on GNU Emacs, a fresh implementation designed to
21run on GNU and GNU-like systems, with a full-featured Lisp at its
22core. GNU Emacs 1.0 through 1.12 were released in early 1985. The
23next version after 1.12 was 13; this was the initial public release.
24
25Here is a list of known GNU Emacs stable releases starting with the
26initial public release. Entries in the list are of the form "GNU
27Emacs N (DATE) TAG", where N is the version number, DATE the release
28date, and TAG (if present) the corresponding tag in the source code
29repository. Any commentary about the version starts on the next line.
