Hi Jean-Pierre, I believe that every doc commit to master that is relevant to branch (that is, it is not dependent on a new feature in master) is ported to branch as well. I'm not sure of that though. Uwe does all the work. Note that any changes to branch are lost when we move to a new major version. For example if you made a long patch for 2.1.4, it would not be included in 2.2.0 or 2.2.1, etc. If you commit to master, it will be included in future versions, starting with the next major version.
