Hello all,

I'm keen on using the functionality in the commit dated Jan 2, 2017 below.

Probing the git repo however it exists only in the master branch and not tagged in a release. The most recent release, tag REL9_6_2, contains commits after Jan 2, but does not contain this commit. The commit appears to have been inserted into the 2017-01 CommitFest [2].

How are commits filtered into releases? i.e. when can we expect this commit to appear in a release?

Thank you,
John
