[Gluster-users] Thin-arbiter questions

Wed Jun 19 05:41:54 UTC 2019

The committing should happen a little earlier than 10th. The tagging is the
one which decides if the patch makes it to the release or not and tagging
happens before 10th. We do announce the tagging date for each release in
the mailing list. You can keep an eye on that to know the dates. And
committing in master won't be enough for it to make it to a release. If it
has to be a part of release 6 then after being committed into master we
have to back port it to the release 6 branch and it should get committed in
that particular branch as well. Only then it will be a part of the package
released for that branch.
