Merge Info

  • Related Issues

  • Backport Timeline

    • Immediate - patchsets for critical bug fixes or other major blocker (e.g. fixes for a 0-day exploit) OR patchsets with trivial changes which do not need testing (e.g. fixes for typos or fixes easily verified in a local developer build)
    • Next Minor Stable Release - patchset that needs to be verified in nightly before backport
    • Eventually - patchset that needs to be verified in alpha before backport
    • No Backport - patchset for the next major stable
  • Upstream Merging

    • Merge to base-browser - typically for !fixups to patches in the base-browser branch, though sometimes new patches as well
      • NOTE: if your changeset includes patches to both base-browser and tor-browser please please make separate merge requests for each part

Change Description

Updates the security backport and rebase templates:

  • adds explicit MR+backport steps for Android security fix backports
  • adds example entry for CVE sections
  • adds patch re-order step/guide to alpha rebases
  • add branch protection steps for base-browser and tor-browser rebases so we don't lose patches merged during the rebase
