@ -135,6 +135,14 @@ Some examples when backport is not required:
- The change is supposed to be released in the next major/minor release, e.g. v8.0.0, but the release branch, e.g. v8.0.x, has not yet been created.
#### Required labels
To ensure that we don't backport pull requests that don't need to be backported, i.e. implement new features, and only backport pull requests that address bugs, have a product approval, or refer to docs changes, backport labels need to be followed by either:
- `type/bug` label: Pull requests which address bugs,
- `product-approved` label: Urgent fixes which need product approval, in order to get merged,
- `type/docs` label: Docs changes`.
> **Note:** You can still backport a pull request after it's been merged.
