Hi, we have officially branched to be prepared for the upcoming Chrome version 61. The base of the branch is currently rolled into Chromium <https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/579370/>. It is based on one of the latest Chrome Canaries.
V8 branch: 6.1 <https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+log/branch-heads/6.1> Original Canary: 61.0.3161.0 Ref to be used in Chromium: 6.1-lkgr <https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+log/6.1-lkgr> If your CL is not included in 61.0.3161.0 you might consider merging it into the branch 6.1. In that case please apply the label 'Merge-Requested-6.1' the the bug the CL is fixing. See https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Merging%20&%20Patching for more information on merging.
