If you have a package where a lot of people are still using a legacy version of it you might want to keep pushing (security-)fixes to that "branch".

Let's say the "latest" version of your package is "5.4.0", but there is as significant amount of people still using "4.7.4" – the last version you released before doing "5.0.0".

You found a critical bug in "5.4.0" and push it as out as "5.4.1", but it applies to "4.7.4" as well and so you want to do "4.7.5".

Assuming you have semantic-release already set up, you can follow these steps to get that "4.7.5" legacy support release out.

1. Go to the relevant commit: git checkout v4.7.4
2. Create a new branch from it: git checkout -b 4.x (You can choose any branch name, just make sure to use the same in step 3)

Writing template strings in Markdown

With template strings coming to ES6, the backtick (`) means something in Markdown and in JavaScript. If you write this:

To display a message, write `alert(`hello world!`)`.

it'll render like this:

To display a message, write alert(hello world!).
