I was having a discussion regarding out-of-support branches and effort to keep them building, but could not for the life of me find any actual documented policy (although I distinctly remember that we do something...). I did find fleeting references, for example: 8<----------------------- commit c705646b751e08d584f6eeb098f1ed002aa7b11c Author: Tom Lane <tgl@sss.pgh.pa.us> Date: 2022-09-21 13:52:38 -0400 <snip> Per project policy, this is a candidate for back-patching into out-of-support branches: it suppresses annoying compiler warnings but changes no behavior. Hence, back-patch all the way to 9.2. 8<----------------------- and on its related thread: 8<----------------------- However, I think that that would *not* be fit material for back-patching into out-of-support branches, since our policy for them is "no behavioral changes". 8<----------------------- Is the policy written down somewhere, or is it only project lore? In either case, what is the actual policy? Thanks, -- Joe Conway PostgreSQL Contributors Team RDS Open Source Databases Amazon Web Services: https://aws.amazon.com
