The exception is, if you know that the change will be difficult to
merge to the trunk (eg because the trunk code has changed a lot).
In that case, it's helpful if you can apply the change to both trunk
and branch yourself (when committing the branch change, indicate
in the commit log that it should not be merged to the trunk; see below).
* Backporting a bug-fix from the trunk to a branch (e.g. "emacs-23").
Label the commit as a backport, e.g. by starting the commit message with
"Backport:". This is helpful for the person merging the release branch
to the trunk.
Indicate in the commit log that there is no need to merge the commit
to the trunk. Anything that matches `bzrmerge-skip-regexp' will do;
eg start the commit message with "Backport:". This is helpful for the
person merging the release branch to the trunk.
