To clarify --- there's certainly no harm in patching the back-branch
copies too. But when Bruce or I work on the release notes, what we
generally do is work on the master-branch copies, and then copy those
files verbatim into the relevant back branches. The reason for the
file-per-branch structure of the release notes is to make this easy.
