But how we describe 9.0 release? Most people will ask two questiones: 1.When(or commit id) the release branch out from master
We know this from the branch creation
2.Which patch we cherry-pick from master after the branch is created
This we can get from the pose branch PRs
and then the huge cherry-pick list just confuse the people why so many minor change enter into the release branch.
I agree that we should not let trivial cosmetic things onto the release branch. We should only permit showstopping, critical bugfixes onto the release branch. It is probably a fair comment that we brought too much unimportant stuff in and the confuses things. Let's add that to the TIL: Only showstopping, critical bugfixes my come into the release branch. Once the release branch is cut, it is not changed for any reason other than to correct user-exposure to bugs.
