## Important notice on experimental branches

ONNX exporting pipelines, OpenUtau support and other deployment-related components are **supported ONLY FOR MAIN BRANCH**. Without in-depth knowledge on how and why DiffSinger code works, you can easily make things break just like many other machine-learning projects. All experimental branches are only intended for feature development, only a limited feature set is tested, and are **never meant to be deployed as ONNX models**. This wasn't clearly stated before and has caused us debugging headaches multiple times in the past, in some cases users had:

- distributed ONNX model that won't work in OpenUtau (possibly worked in their own modified revision) and led to mysterious bug report in OpenUtau repo (#xxxx)
- exported ONNX model with Torch 2.2 (which is unsupported), had a success (which is broken, ONNX export has A LOT of quirks we had to iron out with our code) and distributed the model, led to mysterious bug report in OpenUtau repo (#xxxx)

### Please refrain from distributing model files generated by experimental branches, for the sake of developers' maintenance burden. This is NOT SUPPORTED.
