## Development
2019-05-05 18:10:48 +05:30
2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
- [ ] Run `scripts/security-harness` in your local repository to prevent accidentally pushing to any remote besides `gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security` .
2020-03-07 23:17:34 +05:30
- [ ] Create a new branch prefixing it with `security-` .
- [ ] Create a merge request targeting `master` on `gitlab.com/gitlab-org/security` and use the [Security Release merge request template].

2020-07-28 23:09:34 +05:30
After your merge request has been approved according to our [approval guidelines] and by a team member of the AppSec team, you're ready to prepare the backports
2019-05-05 18:10:48 +05:30
2020-03-07 23:17:34 +05:30
## Backports
- [ ] Once the MR is ready to be merged, create MRs targeting the latest 3 stable branches
* At this point, it might be easy to squash the commits from the MR into one
* You can use the script `bin/secpick` instead of the following steps, to help you cherry-picking. See the [secpick documentation]
- [ ] Create each MR targeting the stable branch `X-Y-stable` , using the [Security Release merge request template].
2020-11-24 15:15:51 +05:30
* Every merge request will have its own set of to-dos, so make sure to complete those.
2020-10-24 23:57:45 +05:30
- [ ] On the "Related merge requests" section, ensure that `4` merge requests are associated: The one targeting `master` and the `3` backports.
- [ ] If this issue requires less than `4` merge requests, post a message on the Security Release Tracking Issue and ping the Release Managers.
