Hi,
To create a 3.5 backport, I use the following commands (something like this, adapt names ;-):
cd ~/python/3.5 git checkout -b fix_something35 git cherry-pick -x commit_sha1 # maybe fix conflicts or make further changes make ./python -m test -v test_modified_test # or better: ./python -m test -j0 -rW gh_pr.sh # my script to open a PR
I consider that it's easy enough to not have a "backport to 3.5" label.
Well, it is easier to use cherry_picker to do this:
$ cherry_picker <sha1> 3.5
That's all. It doesn't run tests but CI will do that so I guess they are similar :)
I asked to remove this label since it was misused by contributors who are not aware that 3.5 not longer accept bug fixes.
Ah okay, I was just looking for this. I guess it makes sense, but I always thought non core devs can't add labels.
Tell me if you need help to do the backport.
Note: there are many tools to open a pull requests on GitHub, but my script is working well for my workload so I never tried any other script ;-)
