## Patch releases - cherry pick required commits
If the release is a patch release (2.0.1, 2.0.2, etc.) checkout the desired release branch and cherry pick specific commits. A patch release is only meant for urgent bug or security fixes.
```bash
RELEASE_BRANCH="v2.0.x"
git checkout $RELEASE_BRANCH
git checkout -b "cherry-picked-change"
git cherry-pick (SHA of change)
git push origin "cherry-picked-change"
```
Open a PR onto $RELEASE_BRANCH to get the changes approved.
