# Backport Policy

The backport policy defines what changes from the unstable (master) branch are
applied to the current stable (`release-*.*`) branch.

To reduce maintenance efforts and improve stability on stable branches, security
fixes, bug fixes, and CI changes are backported, while new features, modules,
and theme improvements are not backported. Upstream changes causing theming
issues are considered a bug and maintainer changes are considered as CI changes.

New modules and theme improvements may be backported when explicitly requested
and backporting is trivial.
