[[PageOutline]] = Preparing for 2.28.0 = WebKitGTK and WPE '''2.28.0''' will be the next release in the stable series (following [wiki:WebKitGTK/2.26.x 2.26.x]). We should merge not overly intrusive patches that improve stability or performance, fix build issues, etc. We branched at r 255667 (04/02/2020). When filing bugs (http://bugs.webkit.org) against stable release, please prefix them with "[GTK] [Stable]" (or "[WPE] [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-2.28 Over the next few weeks we'll be merging important fixes into the branch, so be sure to stay up to date.

To add webkit-2.28 branch to there, add a new remote to .git/config: {{{ [svn-remote "webkit-2.28"] url = https://svn.webkit.org/repository/webkit/releases/WebKitGTK/webkit-2.28 fetch = :refs/remotes/git-svn-webkit-2.28 }}} and run the following commands: {{{ git svn fetch webkit-2.28 -r 255667 git branch webkit-2.28 git-svn-webkit-2.28 git checkout webkit-2.28 git svn rebase }}}
