Hi, we have officially branched to be prepared for the upcoming Chrome version 71. The base of the branch is currently rolled into Chromium. It is based on one of the latest Chrome Canaries.
Integration into Chromium is stopped until Chromium has branched too. V8 branch: branch-heads/7.1 Original Canary: 71.0.3575.0 Ref to be used in Chromium: https://chromium.googlesource.com/v8/v8/+/refs/heads/7.1-lkgr If your CL is not included in 71.0.3575.0 you might consider merging it into the branch branch-heads/7.0. In that case please apply the label Merge-Requested-7.1 to the bug the CL is fixing. See https://github.com/v8/v8/wiki/Merging%20&%20Patching for more information on merging.
