 * On Linux, OpenBLAS sets the processor affinity by default. This may cause [the conflict with R parallel](https://stat.ethz.ch/pipermail/r-sig-hpc/2012-April/001348.html). You can build the library with NO_AFFINITY=1.
 * On Loongson 3A. make test would be failed because of pthread_create error. The error code is EAGAIN. However, it will be OK when you run the same testcase on shell. 
 
-## Specification of Git Branches
-We used the git branching model in this article (http://nvie.com/posts/a-successful-git-branching-model/). 
-Now, there are 4 branches in github.com.
-  * The master branch. This a main branch to reflect a production-ready state.
-  * The develop branch. This a main branch to reflect a state with the latest delivered development changes for the next release.
-  * The loongson3a branch. This is a feature branch. We develop Loongson3A codes on this branch. We will merge this feature to develop branch in future.
-  * The gh-pages branch. This is for web pages
