It's been a couple years since I made a commit with git, and I find that I 
can't do that any more.  It appears master (and branches?) are locked so that 
only travis-ci-validated commits can be pushed.  That means I have to use a 
github fork and make pull requests, yay.  I just want to make sure I have this 
correct now.

I figured out how to reset my 8 year old fork to current master.

The PR process from my years-old notes:

1. merge upstream changes to my fork

2. make my changes

3. push my changes to my fork

4. make PR to qgis upstream

5. (new) wait for travis-ci to succeed

6. merge PR

One thing I'm not sure about is backporting.  I've seen [Backport] tagged 
messages from Github.  And I recall talk about problems with the automated 
backporting bot/app (fixed?).

How do I handle backporting?  Most of the changes I need to make need to be 
backported.
