Hi Infra Team,
While reviewing Andreas' patch [1], I have realized, that Cinder's stable/ocata and stable/pike branches were not deleted yet, however those branches were EOL'd already (see mail below).
According to the process [2], since the EOL patches have merged already, if @Brian doesn't object, can you please delete
- cinder stable/ocata - cinder stable/pike
I have no objection, but I haven't pushed the infra team about the actual branch deletion because as far as I know, cinder is the first project to actually request removal, and I suspect all sorts of stuff will break. I suggest we wait until at least after RC-time to give us all one less thing to worry about.
Sound good to me, thanks Brian!
As far as avoiding breakage goes, I put up two patches to devstack so that it will check out the -eol tag of cinder/brick/cinderclient instead of the stable branch, but I suspect these only scratch the surface of what can be broken once the cinder project branches are deleted.

Sean suggested in an earlier thread on this topic [0] that instead of deleting very old EM branches that some projects have EOL'd project-by-project, we should just delete them wholesale across openstack. That makes a lot of sense to me.
Ocata is quite abandoned nowadays so that makes sense. However, Pike has been active in the past months [3] more or less, so mass-deletion is not an option for Pike, I think. Thanks, Előd [3] https://review.opendev.org/#/q/branch:stable/pike+status:merged

tl;dr - do not approve any backports to stable/ocata or stable/pike in any Cinder project deliverable
stable/ocata has been tagged with ocata-eol in cinder, os-brick, python-cinderclient, and python-brick-cinderclient-ext. Nothing should be merged into stable/ocata in any of these repositories during the interim period before the branches are deleted.
stable/pike: the changes discussed in [0] have merged, and I've proposed the pike-eol tags [1]. Nothing should be merged into stable/pike in any of our code repositories from now until the branches are deleted.
