When I select cherry-pick to release-3.6, I get the message "You can only create or edit files when you are on a branch".
What's the best way to have this added to 3.6?
I don't know if that's the best one to cherry-pick automatically through the GUI. It changes the NEWS file, which has the version number in text, so it probably needs some manual attention. However in the general case, I believe I recall getting that message from the GUI when my personal fork on Gitlab didn't have the release-3.6 branch mirrored, shortly after that branch was related. I had to go and update my mirroring settings. Have you cherry-picked other changes before?
