Hi all, I've just opened https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/pull/320 "Backport policies". This QEP documents the standards and requirements for backporting changes from the master branch to Long Term Release (LTR) and current stable release branches in QGIS. Developers must follow these guidelines when submitting backports.
It is initially intended as a formal description of CURRENT BACKPORT PRACTICES ONLY, which can be later modified and revised (in an atomic manner) if we want to change any of these policies. As such, please refrain from using this initial QEP as a place to discuss changes to current practice. Rather, let's keep discussion focused on whether this is an accurate and complete description of our current backporting policies. 👍 The end goal here is having a formal policy in place describing all our backporting rules, which will help ease new developers into contributing effectively to QGIS and remove some of the unspoken assumptions surrounding QGIS development. Please leave discussion and questions on https://github.com/qgis/QGIS-Enhancement-Proposals/pull/320 so that we have a formal record of the discussion. Nyall
