-* The [[FGMeta]] ''master'' branch is not in use (in 2023 as well as many years before); the download_and_compile.sh script in that branch (and everything else) is '''very old'''.
-* The [[FGMeta]] ''next'' branch contains the current version of the script.
-I ([[User:Rominet|Rominet]]) consider that the warning added in [https://wiki.flightgear.org/w/index.php?title=Scripted_Compilation_on_Linux_Debian/Ubuntu&oldid=129592 this change] is out-of-place and confusing (the command is clearly given too early). As I [[User_talk:Hbeni#Change to "Scripted Compilation on Linux Debian/Ubuntu" (FGMeta branch)|wrote]] on [[User_talk:Hbeni|Hbeni's discussion page]], I haven't encountered circumstances yet in which that command would be useful; I'd be happy to hear how one can have the ''master'' branch checked out after precisely following the instructions without this change.
-If this makes Hbeni happy, a properly placed command to verify that the checked-out branch is ''next'' would be okay. In the absence of a reply, I am going to revert this change which I only find confusing (sorry).
