Hi al, I just checked the git logs and observerd that there are very frequent commits to the branch “rel/0.8”, which should not be the case. So I’ll try to briefly summarize the release process or how the branching model works.
The branch rel/0.8 is solely for the preparation for the release. So NO new feature is allowed to come in. All we do in this branch is to clean up things, fix possible bugs (in preparation for the release), finish release documents or artifacts and those things. Everything else goes to master. So there usually is only one direction, only cherry-picks from rel/0.8 to master are allowed the other direction NOT. There are very few circumstances where one wants to cherry pick from master to a rel branch. So please try to focus on the master branch with development. Perhaps it also helps to notify me on PRs that should go to rel/0.8. If there are questions please feel free to ask : ) Julian
