Re: [DISCUSS] PR targeting for enhancement, feature, bugfix and breaking changes

I also think that we need some policy but it is hard to say right now where should this "enhancement" go. Some improvements cannot go to older branches and some can. For example, it could be a storage version related enhancement in such case the enhancement must go to the branches where it would work (i.e. to the oldest branch where this storage version is enabled). Other improvements could be based on some work which is done in some branch. For example, we could refactor code in the latest branch and not in the old branches and the improvement is easily applied to the refactored code but is hard to be applied to old code in old branches. In such case I would say that the contributor should decide where it should be applied. I.e. in some cases the improvement can be applied to old branches but with a lot of additional work which the contributor don't won't to do. So it is hard for me to suggest a single policy which will work for everyone. I would say, it depends on the concrete case. P.S. I am using "enhancement" and "improvement" as synonims. By "enhancement" I mean "improvement" and not "new funcionality". On Tuesday, July 2, 2019 at 4:40:42 PM UTC+3, Florian Hockmann wrote:
