what are the differences in the WebKit nightly build binary and in the Safari binary? -
i know projects about: safari apples browser. webkit engine used in safari (and in many other browsers) open source. webkit source code contains code compile standalone application. can download nightly build of webkit here: http://nightly.webkit.org/
i have compared of nightly builds of webkit official safari application. , besides different logo , different name, haven't seen difference.
are there any? or branding?
edit: tried again current nightly build of today , names "safari" now.
the webkit nightly builds contain changes in render engine, don't change ui @ all. if install webkit nightly build newer version of webkit render engine, faster , more advanced older webkit render engine shipped apple's safari. example if visite www.html5test.com safari , webkit nightly build, you'll see webkit nightly build scores more points because has newest version of webkit , therefor has more advanced html5/css3 etc. support webkit build used in safari.
the ui used in webkit nightly builds same in current version of safari. ui not part of webkit render engine, no changes made webkit devs. browser vendors (google, apple etc.) build , publish ui.
