Hey folks! Apologies if I've overlooked this getting discussed already. Do we have a goal release cadence for minor versions out of branch-1?
My first gut reaction is that it should essentially match the cadence we've been aiming at for the 0.98 line. That would mean attempting to match monthly, I think? The obvious problem with this is that now that we have patch versions, it means essentially getting a new branch per month for backports. That's quickly going to get old, even if we presume most additions will move onto branch-2 in a year or so. What do folks think about limiting which minor versions patch-level fixes go into? We could default to the most recent release + current minor dev and go back farther when requested by the issue filer? That means in ~3 months we'd expect branch-1 to be working on 1.4 and most patch-level fixes to go into branch-1.3 and branch-1. If someone reported a failure and they were on e.g. 1.1.z, we'd also do the fix in branch-1.1 and branch-1.2. Or should we just stick with hitting all of the branches on the presumption that the cherry picks should be trivial? -- Sean
