I would not use "beta" word anywhere at all. These are nightly builds,
pre-5.1. So it will become 5.1 eventually, but for the moment - it is just
master branch. We've not even reached HCF.

After we reach HCF, we will start calling builds as Release Candidates
(RC1, RC2, etc.)  - and QA team runs acceptance testing against them. This
can be considered as another name instead of "beta-1", etc.

Anyone can go to <fuel-master-IP>:8000/api/version to get sha commits of
git repos a particular build was created of. Yes, these are development
builds, and there will be no upgrade path provided from development build
to 5.1 release or any other release. We might want to think about it
though, if we could do it in theory, but I confirm what Evgeny says - we do
not support it now.
