Preparing for 2.12.0
WebkitGtk+ 2.12.0 will be the next release in the stable series (following 2.10.x). We should merge not overly intrusive patches that improve stability or performance, fix build issues, etc. We branched at r 196806 (19/02/16).
When filing bugs (http://bugs.webkit.org) against stable release, please prefix them with "[GTK] [Stable]" to ensure they are addressed with high priority. Also, running a debug build and including stack traces is highly encouraged. (Don't use "[Stable]" if the bug also applies to master, though.)
To get the stable branch code, simply check out http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-2.12
Over the next few weeks we'll be merging important fixes into the branch, so be sure to stay up to date. Thanks for your help!

How to add a webkit-2.12 branch to existing git-svn clone
If you have already cloned git://git.webkit.org/WebKit.git, it only contains a git-svn clone of the svn trunk. To add webkit-2.12 branch to there, add a new remote to .git/config:
[svn-remote "webkit-2.12"]
url = http://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-2.12
fetch = :refs/remotes/git-svn-webkit-2.12
and run the following commands:
git svn fetch webkit-2.12 -r 196806 git branch webkit-2.12 git-svn-webkit-2.12 git checkout webkit-2.12 git svn rebase
