Hi, we have officially branched to be prepared for the upcoming Chrome version 59. The base of the branch is currently rolled into Chromium <https://codereview.chromium.org/2822443002>. It is based on one of the latest Chrome Canaries.
V8 branch: https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+log/branch-heads/5.9 Original Canary: 59.0.3069.0 Ref to be used in Chromium: https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/5.9-lkgr If your CL is not included in 59.0.3069.0 you might consider merging it into the branch branch-heads/5.9. In that case please apply the label 'Merge-Requested-5.9' the the bug the CL is fixing. See https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Merging%20&%20Patching for more information on merging.
