[vtk-developers] ANN: ParaView 3.10 branch & VTK 5.8 branch

[Dave Partyka]

Getting things into the release has additional steps as you need to get your
commits into both master and release.

Once the branch is created, you woud:

git checkout -b yournewbranch origin/release

The rest is the normal commit procedure on the Wiki to get your commit
merged into master.

Optionally you could use Gerrit and add a note requesting to have your topic
merged into the release branch. Otherwise it is as simple as email the list
or pinging me.

Summarizing, you should proceed as normal except you should originate your
topic branches from release instead of master. And then let us know when
you're changes are ready to be merged into master.
