 Alyssa Ross | A 25.11 release notes document would also be nice so we could start collecting descriptions of breaking changes on staging. | 15:00:25 |
 emily | I personally think it would be nice if there was never a point where we can't land breaking changes somewhere (but I guess the idea of having a freeze prior to branch-off is to focus efforts on ZHF?) | 15:05:14 |
| emily | i.e. we would just branch off everything at the exact point of the freeze | 15:05:32 |
 SigmaSquadron | I would also really like that. | 15:05:48 |
| Alyssa Ross | that would make sense | 15:05:50 |
 leona | staging-25.05 and staging-next-25.05 exists now, periodic merge is set up for that too. (for now master -> staging-next-25.05) | 15:51:40 |
| Alyssa Ross | Great! | 15:53:15 |
| leona | release-notes too. | 15:55:00 |
| Alyssa Ross | Backports are working, just tested :) | 15:55:27 |
 hexa | please document the steps required for setting up the branches early in the release wiki | 16:26:05 |
| hexa | I know it was discussed many times, but thanks for making it happen the first time 🙂 | 16:26:23 |
| emily | should we branch off master too? | 17:02:08 |
| emily | it seems weird that we can make breaking changes that are mass rebuilds but not ones that aren't mass rebuilds | 17:02:18 |
| Alyssa Ross | We can also just put those into staging for now | 17:04:01 |
| leona | i'd not to this now. we can discuss this for next time, it feels off to do now. especially as this will be complicated/strange with the current staging-next | 17:31:30 |
