Hello all,
I just wanted to send a note about a reference doc on the MediaWiki
wiki on backporting bug fixes:
https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Backporting_Fixes
It addresses the difference between backports to stable releases versus
the code on the WMF cluster (as well as the special process for security
related bugs).
Of note:
We now have backport "flags" in bugzilla to track the backport
process. There is one for stable releases ("Backport_to_Stable") and
one for the WMF cluster ("Backport_WMF").
I hope this can help to clarify some confusion around the backporting
process.
Greg
