|
|
1. create a new branch from the tag: `git checkout -b v4.2.2-maxChar500`
|
|
1. modify the files that need to be modified (e.q. `git apply ../mastodon-character-increase/character-limit-patch.patch/v4.2-increase-character-limit-from-500-to-5000.patch` )
|
|
1. commit the changes to your branch: `git commit`
|
|
