At the end, you can create a PR from `release/3.8.25` to `maven-3.8.x` or just increment version in `maven-3.8.x` (as long as you have the tag, does the commit by the m-release-p really matter?) > > What if master has developed from then? A ff-merge isn't possible anymore, no? and so what is the problem? the tag is there. it's the most important of a release. then just bump version in the main branch. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
