Create a `release-1.8` branch and backport fixes to it

Open KristofferC opened this issue 3 years ago • 2 comments

Stdlibs that live in their own repo generally needs to do a similar backport process as in the Julia repo. Roughly this is done by:

  • [x] Have a release-1.x branch.
  • [x] Before a release, create a backports-release-1.x branch.
  • [x] Backport fixes on master that are suitable for backporting to backports-release-1.x
  • [ ] When CI looks good on that branch, merge it into release-1.x.
  • [ ] Bump the stdlib/SparseArrays.version on the backport branch in the Julia repo.

To run CI on that branch I have to PR from it correct? PR from backports-release-1.8 to release-1.8. And then we can also collect the solution to https://github.com/JuliaSparse/SparseArrays.jl/issues/251 as well hopefully.

  • [ ] Bump the stdlib/SparseArrays.version on the backport branch in the Julia repo.

Note: currently, this step needs to be done manually. However, once https://github.com/JuliaLang/BumpStdlibs.jl/issues/76 has been done, we'll be able to use the BumpStdlibs bot to automate this step.
