Two comments:
* It is said that the preferred way to get a patch from one branch
to another is by doing a merge operation in the VCS. Depending
on the timing we will most likely end up with two (trunk + 5.4)
or, more likely, three (+ 5.3) old branches which are active.
Will it be possible to merge between them using the VCS's merge
facilities or will we end up cherry-picking there? If this is
possible and we continuously merge these branches what are the
strategies for preventing specific changes from being merged
with the suggested systems (git and hg)?
* There is a section "Moving extension from/to core to/from pecl"
which seems to describe the "to core from pecl" route, not the
other way round.
