Hello @li4wang ! Normally we merge new features (like this one) only to master and we cherry-pick only the security and bug fixes to older branches. However, I see this commit to be valuable for the community and it doesn't change the default behavior. Also, I don't know when 3.9.0 will happen... so I'm open to have it backported to branch-3.8 and branch-3.7. @eolivelli what do you think? If we would do that, then I think no new Jira is necessary, but we would need two new github PRs targeting branch-3.7 and branch-3.8. Also we would need a small PR on master, fixing the documentation about the version numbers (since when this feature is available... like "New in 3.7.2, 3.8.1, 3.9.0") Just for your info: it is perfectly normal and legal (many of us actually do this) to build your own ZooKeeper version, based on a branch you are familiar with / tested before, adding only a few commits from later branches. Then use this in production. Building ZooKeeper is quite simple (use jdk8 and a relatively recent maven, then simply `mvn clean install -DskipTests`) -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
