What?
Update release docs.
Why?
To document an edgy case scenario when releasing point releases for previous stable releases when a new stable release is still not out, but an RC is. If a new release branch exists, commits should be cherry-picked there, too, for the same changes to be available in the upcoming releases.
How?
By documenting it in the
release.md
