The Istio Slack channel #release-17 can be used to reach out the release managers with questions about 1.7 release.
On July 21, 2020, the release-1.7 branch will be created, based on master. Any changes on master before this date will be included in the release. Any changes after will have to be cherry picked.
To get a PR merged into the release branch, it must first be merged into the master branch. PRs can automatically be cherrypicked by adding the cherrypick/release-1.7 label to the PR before it gets merged or by typing /cherrypick release-1.7 in a comment after it is merged.
A PR on the release branch will only be approved if:
- The change is already on
master.- exception: if a change only applies to the release branch, and should not go to
master, a change can be submitted directly to the release branch, but please note this in the PR description.
- exception: if a change only applies to the release branch, and should not go to
- The change is a bug fix, documentation enhancement, or testing enhancement.
- Changes that are risky may require a feature flag, especially after the 1.7.0 release.
- Any change not meeting the above, such as a new feature or API, may require TOC approval.
Note: on the istio.io repo, changes should go directly to master until after the 1.7.0 launch. The changes will appear on preliminary istio.io.
