Read Original

This technical article details the process of backporting a security fix to an older software release on Conda Forge. It explains the steps for creating a backport release in Git, publishing it to PyPI, and then navigating Conda Forge's automation to update the specific version branch instead of the main branch, using a real-world Dask CVE patch as a case study.
