[RFC] Git tag after extended hard freeze

[RFC] Git tag after extended hard freeze

[Michael Kubacki]

The edk2-stable202111 tag was created on commit bb1bba3 on Nov 26th 2021 
as described in 
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2/releases/tag/edk2-stable202111.

During the ongoing extended hard freeze, several changes related to code 
formatting and CI plugins are being applied as described in 
https://edk2.groups.io/g/devel/message/84132.

Since the code has already been tagged prior to these changes, I would 
like to see if a tag can also be applied after the extended hard freeze 
changes are complete. The tag would be a useful reference for those 
interested in integrating the Uncrustify changes with the previously 
tagged edk2-stable202111 code.

Regards,
Michael

Michael:
  Next stable tag 202202 will include these changes. We can introduce this feature into next stable tag release note. 

  Besides, do you plan to write one wiki page to introduce Uncrustify features and changes? If so, this wiki can be linked to the stable tag release note. 

Thanks

Inclusion in the next stable tag doesn't provide an explicit reference 
for those that wish to adopt edk2-stable202111 + Uncrustify. This will 
likely be a relatively common path since if you wait until 
edk2-stable202202:

1) local source code will be very different from the upstream impacting 
diffs and contributions in the meantime

2) the actual changes that occurred during the edk2-stable202202 time 
frame will be much easier to diff against the 
edk2-stable202111-uncrustify tag than the edk2-stable202111 tag alone

Integration of edk2-stable202111 + Uncrustify can of course be done 
without the tag but I think it would be meaningful and help better 
designate a common upstream integration point.

Yes, I can consolidate information present in several places at the 
moment into a single wiki page.

Thanks,
Michael
