When moving changes from 8.7 to 8.6.3, must we (the mover of an individual
change) move the CHANGES.txt entry on all branches -- master, branch_8x,
branch_8_6?  I expect the release branch but am unsure of the other two.
In the past I have but it's annoying.  Does the RM sync CHANGES.txt on the
other branches in one go?  If not, I think it'd make sense for that to
happen.
