Hi all, As per earlier email, we'll be setting up delivery and release branches for 12.6 today, in the next 30 min.
All remaining open pull requests for 12.6 will be pushed to milestone NB13. If there's a need to get a particular PR into 12.6, please rebase on delivery when that's ready. As we now have multiple people doing the release process, we'll handle merging by monitoring the milestone rather than needing to request us all to review! We'll aim to have a first release candidate built ready for testing in the middle of next week, so still a few days to get any really needed PRs in before that! :-) In addition to the usual rules on pull requests below, please refrain from merging to master until the spec version increment is in. As Matthias pointed out, we should be doing that immediately after branching since adding the delivery branch to the process. **The following rules are applied to the pull request from now until release:** PR's intended to be included in the 12.6 release : - Limited to fixes and (ideally) tied to a JIRA ticket. - Base on the delivery branch. - Mark with 12.6 milestone. - Will be merged by the release team. - Will be assessed against the bug priority guidelines. PR's with features for a future release : - Base on the master branch. - Will be reviewed and merged in the usual way. - If possible stay away from big refactoring. - If possible do not overlap with fixes for 12.6 (delivery will be merged to master weekly). Thanks and best wishes, Neil --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [email protected] For additional commands, e-mail: [email protected] For further information about the NetBeans mailing lists, visit: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/NETBEANS/Mailing+lists
