-# v0.23.0 (2024-11-13)
-
-`v0.23.0` is a major feature release.
-
-We are planning to make this the last major release before Spack `v1.0`
-in June 2025. Alongside `v0.23`, we will be making pre-releases (alpha,
-beta, etc.)  of `v1.0`, and we encourage users to try them and send us
-feedback, either on GitHub or on Slack. You can track the road to
-`v1.0` here:
-
-  * https://github.com/spack/spack/releases
-  * https://github.com/spack/spack/discussions/30634
-
-## Features in this Release
-
-1. **Language virtuals**
-
-   Your packages can now explicitly depend on the languages they require.
-   Historically, Spack has considered C, C++, and Fortran compiler
-   dependencies to be implicit. In `v0.23`, you should ensure that
-   new packages add relevant C, C++, and Fortran dependencies like this:
-
-   ```python
-   depends_on("c", type="build")
-   depends_on("cxx", type="build")
-   depends_on("fortran", type="build")
-   ```
-
-   We encourage you to add these annotations to your packages now, to prepare
-   for Spack `v1.0.0`. In `v1.0.0`, these annotations will be necessary for
-   your package to use C, C++, and Fortran compilers. Note that you should
-   *not* add language dependencies to packages that don't need them, e.g.,
-   pure python packages.
-
-   We have already auto-generated these dependencies for packages in the
-   `builtin` repository (see #45217), based on the types of source files
-   present in each package's source code. We *may* have added too many or too
-   few language dependencies, so please submit pull requests to correct
-   packages if you find that the language dependencies are incorrect.
-
-   Note that we have also backported support for these dependencies to
-   `v0.21.3` and `v0.22.2`, to make all of them forward-compatible with
-   `v0.23`. This should allow you to move easily between older and newer Spack
-   releases without breaking your packages.
-
-2. **Spec splicing**
-
-   We are working to make binary installation more seamless in Spack. `v0.23`
-   introduces "splicing", which allows users to deploy binaries using local,
-   optimized versions of a binary interface, even if they were not built with
-   that interface. For example, this would allow you to build binaries in the
-   cloud using `mpich` and install them on a system using a local, optimized
-   version of `mvapich2` *without rebuilding*. Spack preserves full provenance
-   for the installed packages and knows that they were built one way but
-   deployed another.
-
-   Our intent is to leverage this across many key HPC binary packages,
-   e.g. MPI, CUDA, ROCm, and libfabric.
-
-   Fundamentally, splicing allows Spack to redeploy an existing spec with
-   different dependencies than how it was built. There are two interfaces to
-   splicing.
-
-   a. Explicit Splicing
-
-      #39136 introduced the explicit splicing interface. In the
-      concretizer config, you can specify a target spec and a replacement
-      by hash.
-
-      ```yaml
-      concretizer:
-        splice:
-          explicit:
-          - target: mpi
-            replacement: mpich/abcdef
-      ```
-
-      Here, every installation that would normally use the target spec will
-      instead use its replacement. Above, any spec using *any* `mpi` will be
-      spliced to depend on the specific `mpich` installation requested. This
-      *can* go wrong if you try to replace something built with, e.g.,
-      `openmpi` with `mpich`, and it is on the user to ensure ABI
-      compatibility between target and replacement specs. This currently
-      requires some expertise to use, but it will allow users to reuse the
-      binaries they create across more machines and environments.
-
-   b. Automatic Splicing (experimental)
-
-      #46729 introduced automatic splicing. In the concretizer config, enable
-      automatic splicing:
-
-      ```yaml
-      concretizer:
-        splice:
-          automatic: true
-      ```
-
-      or run:
-
-      ```console
-      spack config add concretizer:splice:automatic:true
-      ```
-
-      The concretizer will select splices for ABI compatibility to maximize
-      package reuse. Packages can denote ABI compatibility using the
-      `can_splice` directive. No packages in Spack yet use this directive, so
-      if you want to use this feature you will need to add `can_splice`
-      annotations to your packages. We are working on ways to add more ABI
-      compatibility information to the Spack package repository, and this
-      directive may change in the future.
-
-   See the documentation for more details:
-   * https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/build_settings.html#splicing
-   * https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packaging_guide.html#specifying-abi-compatibility
-
-3. Broader variant propagation
-
-   Since #42931, you can specify propagated variants like `hdf5
-   build_type==RelWithDebInfo` or `trilinos ++openmp` to propagate a variant
-   to all dependencies for which it is relevant. This is valid *even* if the
-   variant does not exist on the package or its dependencies.
-
-   See https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/basic_usage.html#variants.
-
-4. Query specs by namespace
-
-   #45416 allows a package's namespace (indicating the repository it came from)
-   to be treated like a variant. You can request packages from particular repos
-   like this:
-
-   ```console
-   spack find zlib namespace=builtin
-   spack find zlib namespace=myrepo
-   ```
-
-   Previously, the spec syntax only allowed namespaces to be prefixes of spec
-   names, e.g. `builtin.zlib`. The previous syntax still works.
-
-5. `spack spec` respects environment settings and `unify:true`
-
-   `spack spec` did not previously respect environment lockfiles or
-   unification settings, which made it difficult to see exactly how a spec
-   would concretize within an environment. Now it does, so the output you get
-   with `spack spec` will be *the same* as what your environment will
-   concretize to when you run `spack concretize`. Similarly, if you provide
-   multiple specs on the command line with `spack spec`, it will concretize
-   them together if `unify:true` is set.
-
-   See #47556 and #44843.
-
-6. Less noisy `spack spec` output
-
-   `spack spec` previously showed output like this:
-
-   ```console
-    > spack spec /v5fn6xo
-    Input spec
-    --------------------------------
-     -   /v5fn6xo
-
-    Concretized
-    --------------------------------
-    [+]  openssl@3.3.1%apple-clang@16.0.0~docs+shared arch=darwin-sequoia-m1
-    ...
-   ```
-
-   But the input spec is redundant, and we know we run `spack spec` to concretize
-   the input spec. `spack spec` now *only* shows the concretized spec. See #47574.
-
-7. Better output for `spack find -c`
-
-   In an environmnet, `spack find -c` lets you search the concretized, but not
-   yet installed, specs, just as you would the installed ones. As with `spack
-   spec`, this should make it easier for you to see what *will* be built
-   before building and installing it. See #44713.
-
-8. `spack -C <env>`: use an environment's configuration without activation
-
-   Spack environments allow you to associate:
-   1. a set of (possibly concretized) specs, and
-   2. configuration
-
-   When you activate an environment, you're using both of these. Previously, we
-   supported:
-   * `spack -e <env>` to run spack in the context of a specific environment, and
-   * `spack -C <directory>` to run spack using a directory with configuration files.
-
-   You can now also pass an environment to `spack -C` to use *only* the environment's
-   configuration, but not the specs or lockfile. See #45046.
-
-## New commands, options, and directives
-
-* The new `spack env track` command (#41897) takes a non-managed Spack
-  environment and adds a symlink to Spack's `$environments_root` directory, so
-  that it will be included for reference counting for commands like `spack
-  uninstall` and `spack gc`. If you use free-standing directory environments,
-  this is useful for preventing Spack from removing things required by your
-  environments. You can undo this tracking with the `spack env untrack`
-  command.
-
-* Add `-t` short option for `spack --backtrace` (#47227)
-
-  `spack -d / --debug` enables backtraces on error, but it can be very
-  verbose, and sometimes you just want the backtrace. `spack -t / --backtrace`
-  provides that option.
-
-* `gc`: restrict to specific specs (#46790)
-
-  If you only want to garbage-collect specific packages, you can now provide
-  them on the command line. This gives users finer-grained control over what
-  is uninstalled.
-
-* oci buildcaches now support `--only=package`. You can now push *just* a
-  package and not its dependencies to an OCI registry. This allows dependents
-  of non-redistributable specs to be stored in OCI registries without an
-  error. See #45775.
-
-## Notable refactors
-* Variants are now fully conditional
-
-  The `variants` dictionary on packages was previously keyed by variant name,
-  and allowed only one definition of any given variant. Spack is now smart
-  enough to understand that variants may have different values and defaults
-  for different versions. For example, `warpx` prior to `23.06` only supported
-  builds for one dimensionality, and newer `warpx` versions could be built
-  with support for many different dimensions:
-
-  ```python
-  variant(
-      "dims",
-      default="3",
-      values=("1", "2", "3", "rz"),
-      multi=False,
-      description="Number of spatial dimensions",
-      when="@:23.05",
-  )
-  variant(
-      "dims",
-      default="1,2,rz,3",
-      values=("1", "2", "3", "rz"),
-      multi=True,
-      description="Number of spatial dimensions",
-      when="@23.06:",
-  )
-  ```
-
-  Previously, the default for the old version of `warpx` was not respected and
-  had to be specified manually. Now, Spack will select the right variant
-  definition for each version at concretization time. This allows variants to
-  evolve more smoothly over time. See #44425 for details.
-
-## Highlighted bugfixes
-
-1. Externals no longer override the preferred provider (#45025).
-
-   External definitions could interfere with package preferences. Now, if
-   `openmpi` is the preferred `mpi`, and an external `mpich` is defined, a new
-   `openmpi` *will* be built if building it is possible. Previously we would
-   prefer `mpich` despite the preference.
-
-2. Composable `cflags` (#41049).
-
-   This release fixes a longstanding bug that concretization would fail if
-   there were different `cflags` specified in `packages.yaml`,
-   `compilers.yaml`, or on `the` CLI. Flags and their ordering are now tracked
-   in the concretizer and flags from multiple sources will be merged.
-
-3. Fix concretizer Unification for included environments (#45139).
-
-## Deprecations, removals, and syntax changes
-
-1. The old concretizer has been removed from Spack, along with the
-   `config:concretizer` config option. Spack will emit a warning if the option
-   is present in user configuration, since it now has no effect. Spack now
-   uses a simpler bootstrapping mechanism, where a JSON prototype is tweaked
-   slightly to get an initial concrete spec to download. See #45215.
-
-2. Best-effort expansion of spec matrices has been removed. This feature did
-   not work with the "new" ASP-based concretizer, and did not work with
-   `unify: True` or `unify: when_possible`. Use the
-   [exclude key](https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/environments.html#spec-matrices)
-   for the environment to exclude invalid components, or use multiple spec
-   matrices to combine the list of specs for which the constraint is valid and
-   the list of specs for which it is not. See #40792.
-
-3. The old Cray `platform` (based on Cray PE modules) has been removed, and
-   `platform=cray` is no longer supported. Since `v0.19`, Spack has handled
-   Cray machines like Linux clusters with extra packages, and we have
-   encouraged using this option to support Cray. The new approach allows us to
-   correctly handle Cray machines with non-SLES operating systems, and it is
-   much more reliable than making assumptions about Cray modules. See the
-   `v0.19` release notes and #43796 for more details.
-
-4. The `config:install_missing_compilers` config option has been deprecated,
-   and it is a no-op when set in `v0.23`. Our new compiler dependency model
-   will replace it with a much more reliable and robust mechanism in `v1.0`.
-   See #46237.
-
-5. Config options that deprecated in `v0.21` have been removed in `v0.23`. You
-   can now only specify preferences for `compilers`, `targets`, and
-   `providers` globally via the `packages:all:` section. Similarly, you can
-   only specify `versions:` locally for a specific package. See #44061 and
-   #31261 for details.
-
-6. Spack's old test interface has been removed (#45752), having been
-   deprecated in `v0.22.0` (#34236). All `builtin` packages have been updated
-   to use the new interface. See the [stand-alone test documentation](
-   https://spack.readthedocs.io/en/latest/packaging_guide.html#stand-alone-tests)
-
-7. The `spack versions --safe-only` option, deprecated since `v0.21.0`, has
-   been removed. See #45765.
-
-* The `--dependencies` and `--optimize` arguments to `spack ci` have been
-  deprecated. See #45005.
-
-## Binary caches
-1. Public binary caches now include an ML stack for Linux/aarch64 (#39666)We
-   now build an ML stack for Linux/aarch64 for all pull requests and on
-   develop. The ML stack includes both CPU-only and CUDA builds for Horovod,
-   Hugging Face, JAX, Keras, PyTorch,scikit-learn, TensorBoard, and
-   TensorFlow, and related packages. The CPU-only stack also includes XGBoost.
-   See https://cache.spack.io/tag/develop/?stack=ml-linux-aarch64-cuda.
-
-2. There is also now an stack of developer tools for macOS (#46910), which is
-   analogous to the Linux devtools stack. You can use this to avoid building
-   many common build dependencies. See
-   https://cache.spack.io/tag/develop/?stack=developer-tools-darwin.
-
-## Architecture support

-   Windows has a few idiosyncrasies when it comes to the Spack spec syntax and the use of certain shells
-   Spack's spec dependency syntax uses the carat (``^``) character, however this is an escape string in CMD
-   so it must be escaped with an additional carat (i.e. ``^^``).
-   CMD also will attempt to interpret strings with ``=`` characters in them. Any spec including this symbol
-   must double quote the string.

---------
-Splicing
---------
-
-The ``splice`` key covers config attributes for splicing specs in the solver.
-
-"Splicing" is a method for replacing a dependency with another spec
-that provides the same package or virtual. There are two types of
-splices, referring to different behaviors for shared dependencies
-between the root spec and the new spec replacing a dependency:
-"transitive" and "intransitive". A "transitive" splice is one that
-resolves all conflicts by taking the dependency from the new node. An
-"intransitive" splice is one that resolves all conflicts by taking the
-dependency from the original root. From a theory perspective, hybrid
-splices are possible but are not modeled by Spack.
-
-All spliced specs retain a ``build_spec`` attribute that points to the
-original Spec before any splice occurred. The ``build_spec`` for a
-non-spliced spec is itself.
-
-The figure below shows examples of transitive and intransitive splices:
-
-.. figure:: images/splices.png
-   :align: center
-
-The concretizer can be configured to explicitly splice particular
-replacements for a target spec. Splicing will allow the user to make
-use of generically built public binary caches, while swapping in
-highly optimized local builds for performance critical components
-and/or components that interact closely with the specific hardware
-details of the system. The most prominent candidate for splicing is
-MPI providers. MPI packages have relatively well-understood ABI
-characteristics, and most High Performance Computing facilities deploy
-highly optimized MPI packages tailored to their particular
-hardware. The following config block configures Spack to replace
-whatever MPI provider each spec was concretized to use with the
-particular package of ``mpich`` with the hash that begins ``abcdef``.
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   concretizer:
-     splice:
-       explicit:
-       - target: mpi
-         replacement: mpich/abcdef
-         transitive: false
-
-.. warning::
-
-   When configuring an explicit splice, you as the user take on the
-   responsibility for ensuring ABI compatibility between the specs
-   matched by the target and the replacement you provide. If they are
-   not compatible, Spack will not warn you and your application will
-   fail to run.
-
-The ``target`` field of an explicit splice can be any abstract
-spec. The ``replacement`` field must be a spec that includes the hash
-of a concrete spec, and the replacement must either be the same
-package as the target, provide the virtual that is the target, or
-provide a virtual that the target provides. The ``transitive`` field
-is optional -- by default, splices will be transitive.
-
-.. note::
-
-   With explicit splices configured, it is possible for Spack to
-   concretize to a spec that does not satisfy the input. For example,
-   with the config above ``hdf5 ^mvapich2`` will concretize to user
-   ``mpich/abcdef`` instead of ``mvapich2`` as the MPI provider. Spack
-   will warn the user in this case, but will not fail the
-   concretization.
-
-.. _automatic_splicing:
-
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Automatic Splicing
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-
-The Spack solver can be configured to do automatic splicing for
-ABI-compatible packages. Automatic splices are enabled in the concretizer
-config section
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-   concretizer:
-     splice:
-       automatic: True
-
-Packages can include ABI-compatibility information using the
-``can_splice`` directive. See :ref:`the packaging
-guide<abi_compatibility>` for instructions on specifying ABI
-compatibility using the ``can_splice`` directive.
-
-.. note::
-
-   The ``can_splice`` directive is experimental and may be changed in
-   future versions.
-
-When automatic splicing is enabled, the concretizer will combine any
-number of ABI-compatible specs if possible to reuse installed packages
-and packages available from binary caches. The end result of these
-specs is equivalent to a series of transitive/intransitive splices,
-but the series may be non-obvious.

-Build Cache Stacks
-""""""""""""""""""
-
-Spack welcomes the contribution of software stacks of interest to the community. These
-stacks are used to test package recipes and generate publicly available build caches.
-Spack uses GitLab CI for managing the orchestration of build jobs.
-
-GitLab Entry Point
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-Add stack entrypoint to the ``share/spack/gitlab/cloud_pipelines/.gitlab-ci.yml``. There
-are two stages required for each new stack, the generation stage and the build stage.
-
-The generate stage is defined using the job template ``.generate`` configured with
-environment variables defining the name of the stack in ``SPACK_CI_STACK_NAME`` and the
-platform (``SPACK_TARGET_PLATFORM``) and architecture (``SPACK_TARGET_ARCH``) configuration,
-and the tags associated with the class of runners to build on.
-
-.. note::
-
-    The ``SPACK_CI_STACK_NAME`` must match the name of the directory containing the
-    stacks ``spack.yaml``.
-
-
-.. note::
-
-    The platform and architecture variables are specified in order to select the
-    correct configurations from the generic configurations used in Spack CI. The
-    configurations currently available are:
-
-    * ``.cray_rhel_zen4``
-    * ``.cray_sles_zen4``
-    * ``.darwin_aarch64``
-    * ``.darwin_x86_64``
-    * ``.linux_aarch64``
-    * ``.linux_icelake``
-    * ``.linux_neoverse_n1``
-    * ``.linux_neoverse_v1``
-    * ``.linux_neoverse_v2``
-    * ``.linux_power``
-    * ``.linux_skylake``
-    * ``.linux_x86_64``
-    * ``.linux_x86_64_v4``
-
-    New configurations can be added to accommodate new platforms and architectures.
-
-
-The build stage is defined as a trigger job that consumes the GitLab CI pipeline generated in
-the generate stage for this stack. Build stage jobs use the ``.build`` job template which
-handles the basic configuration.
-
-An example entry point for a new stack called ``my-super-cool-stack``
-

-Stack Configuration
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The stack configuration is a spack environment file with two additional sections added.
-Stack configurations should be located in ``share/spack/gitlab/cloud_pipelines/stacks/<stack_name>/spack.yaml``.
-
-The ``ci`` section is generally used to define stack specific mappings such as image or tags.
-For more information on what can go into the ``ci`` section refer to the docs on pipelines.
-
-The ``cdash`` section is used for defining where to upload the results of builds. Spack configures
-most of the details for posting pipeline results to
-`cdash.spack.io <https://cdash.spack.io/index.php?project=Spack+Testing>`_. The only
-requirement in the stack configuration is to define a ``build-group`` that is unique,
-this is usually the long name of the stack.
-
-An example stack that builds ``zlib``.
-
-.. code-block:: yaml
-
-    spack:
-      view: false
-      packages:
-        all:
-          require: ["%gcc", "target=x86_64_v3"]
-      specs:
-      - zlib
-
-      ci:
-        pipeline-gen
-        - build-job:
-            image: my-super-cool-stack-image:0.0.1
-
-      cdash:
-        build-group: My Super Cool Stack
-
-.. note::
-
-    The ``image`` used in the ``*-generate`` job must match exactly the ``image`` used in the ``build-job``.
-    When the images do not match the build job may fail.

-Registering Runners
-"""""""""""""""""""
-
-Contributing computational resources to Spack's CI build farm is one way to help expand the
-capabilities and offerings of the public Spack build caches. Currently, Spack utilizes linux runners
-from AWS, Google, and the University of Oregon (UO).
-
-Runners require three key peices:
-* Runner Registration Token
-* Accurate tags
-* OIDC Authentication script
-* GPG keys
-
-
-Minimum GitLab Runner Version: ``16.1.0``
-`Intallation instructions <https://docs.gitlab.com/runner/install/>`_
-
-Registration Token
-~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
-
-The first step to contribute new runners is to open an issue in the `spack infrastructure <https://github.com/spack/spack-infrastructure/issues/new?assignees=&labels=runner-registration&projects=&template=runner_registration.yml>`_
-project. This will be reported to the spack infrastructure team who will guide users through the process
-of registering new runners for Spack CI.
-
-The information needed to register a runner is the motivation for the new resources, a semi-detailed description of
-the runner, and finallly the point of contact for maintaining the software on the runner.
-
-The point of contact will then work with the infrastruture team to obtain runner registration token(s) for interacting with
-with Spack's GitLab instance. Once the runner is active, this point of contact will also be responsible for updating the
-GitLab runner software to keep pace with Spack's Gitlab.
-
-Tagging
-~~~~~~~
-
-In the initial stages of runner registration it is important to **exclude** the special tag ``spack``. This will prevent
-the new runner(s) from being picked up for production CI jobs while it is configured and evaluated. Once it is determined
-that the runner is ready for production use the ``spack`` tag will be added.
-
-Because gitlab has no concept of tag exclustion, runners that provide specialized resource also require specialized tags.
-For example, a basic CPU only x86_64 runner may have a tag ``x86_64`` associated with it. However, a runner containing an
-CUDA capable GPU may have the tag ``x86_64-cuda`` to denote that it should only be used for packages that will benefit from
-a CUDA capable resource.
-
-OIDC
-~~~~
-
-Spack runners use OIDC authentication for connecting to the appropriate AWS bucket
-which is used for coordinating the communication of binaries between build jobs. In
-order to configure OIDC authentication, Spack CI runners use a python script with minimal
-dependencies. This script can be configured for runners as seen here using the ``pre_build_script``.
-
-.. code-block:: toml
-
-    [[runners]]

-
-      . ./envvars
-      rm -f envvars
-      unset GITLAB_OIDC_TOKEN
-      """
-
-GPG Keys
-~~~~~~~~
-
-Runners that may be utilized for ``protected`` CI require the registration of an intermediate signing key that
-can be used to sign packages. For more information on package signing read :ref:`key_architecture`.

-To make the patch release process both efficient and transparent, we use a *backports pull request*
-which contains cherry-picked commits from the ``develop`` branch. The majority of the work is to
-cherry-pick the bug fixes, which ideally should be done as soon as they land on ``develop``:
-this ensures cherry-picking happens in order, and makes conflicts easier to resolve since the
-changes are fresh in the mind of the developer.
+Assuming a project board has already been created and all required work
+completed, the steps to make the point release are:
 
-The backports pull request is always titled ``Backports vX.Y.Z`` and is labelled ``backports``. It
-is opened from a branch named ``backports/vX.Y.Z`` and targets the ``releases/vX.Y`` branch.
+#. Create a new project board for the next point release.
 
-Whenever a pull request labelled ``vX.Y.Z`` is merged, cherry-pick the associated squashed commit
-on ``develop`` to the ``backports/vX.Y.Z`` branch. For pull requests that were rebased (or not
-squashed), cherry-pick each associated commit individually. Never force push to the
-``backports/vX.Y.Z`` branch.
+#. Move any optional tasks that are not done to the next project board.
 
-.. warning::
+#. Check out the release branch (it should already exist).
 
-   Sometimes you may **still** get merge conflicts even if you have
-   cherry-picked all the commits in order. This generally means there
-   is some other intervening pull request that the one you're trying
-   to pick depends on. In these cases, you'll need to make a judgment
-   call regarding those pull requests.  Consider the number of affected
-   files and/or the resulting differences.
+    For the ``X.Y.Z`` release, the release branch is called ``releases/vX.Y``.
+    For ``v0.15.1``, you would check out ``releases/v0.15``:
 
-   1. If the changes are small, you might just cherry-pick it.
+   .. code-block:: console
 
-   2. If the changes are large, then you may decide that this fix is not
-      worth including in a patch release, in which case you should remove
-      the label from the pull request. Remember that large, manual backports
-      are seldom the right choice for a patch release.
+      $ git checkout releases/v0.15
 
-When all commits are cherry-picked in the ``backports/vX.Y.Z`` branch, make the patch
-release as follows:
+#. If a pull request to the release branch named ``Backports vX.Y.Z`` is not already
+   in the project, create it. This pull request ought to be created as early as
+   possible when working on a release project, so that we can build the release
+   commits incrementally, and identify potential conflicts at an early stage.
 
-#. `Create a new label <https://github.com/spack/spack/labels>`_ ``vX.Y.{Z+1}`` for the next patch
-   release.
+#. Cherry-pick each pull request in the ``Done`` column of the release
+   project board onto the ``Backports vX.Y.Z`` pull request.
 
-#. Replace the label ``vX.Y.Z`` with ``vX.Y.{Z+1}`` for all PRs and issues that are not done.
+   This is **usually** fairly simple since we squash the commits from the
+   vast majority of pull requests. That means there is only one commit
+   per pull request to cherry-pick. For example, `this pull request
+   <https://github.com/spack/spack/pull/15777>`_ has three commits, but
+   they were squashed into a single commit on merge. You can see the
+   commit that was created here:

+An environment is used to group together a set of specs for the
+purpose of building, rebuilding and deploying in a coherent fashion.
+Environments provide a number of advantages over the *à la carte*
+approach of building and loading individual Spack modules:
 
-#. *which* specs to install;
-#. *how* those specs are configured; and
-#. *where* the concretized software will be installed.
-
-Aggregating this information into an environment for processing has advantages
-over the *à la carte* approach of building and loading individual Spack modules.
-
-With environments, you concretize, install, or load (activate) all of the
-specs with a single command. Concretization fully configures the specs
-and dependencies of the environment in preparation for installing the
-software. This is a more robust solution than ad-hoc installation scripts.
-And you can share an environment or even re-use it on a different computer.
-
-Environment definitions, especially *how* specs are configured, allow the
-software to remain stable and repeatable even when Spack packages are upgraded. Changes are only picked up when the environment is explicitly re-concretized.
-
-Defining *where* specs are installed supports a filesystem view of the
-environment. Yet Spack maintains a single installation of the software that
-can be re-used across multiple environments.
-
-Activating an environment determines *when* all of the associated (and
-installed) specs are loaded so limits the software loaded to those specs
-actually needed by the environment. Spack can even generate a script to
-load all modules related to an environment.
+#. Environments separate the steps of (a) choosing what to
+   install, (b) concretizing, and (c) installing.  This allows
+   Environments to remain stable and repeatable, even if Spack packages
+   are upgraded: specs are only re-concretized when the user
+   explicitly asks for it.  It is even possible to reliably
+   transport environments between different computers running
+   different versions of Spack!
+#. Environments allow several specs to be built at once; a more robust
+   solution than ad-hoc scripts making multiple calls to ``spack
+   install``.
+#. An Environment that is built as a whole can be loaded as a whole
+   into the user environment. An Environment can be built to maintain
+   a filesystem view of its packages, and the environment can load
+   that view into the user environment at activation time. Spack can
+   also generate a script to load all modules related to an
+   environment.

 some ways to Spack environments; for example, `Conda environments

-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
-Specifying backward and forward compatibility
-^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
+Version ranges
+^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
 
-Packages are often compatible with a range of versions of their
-dependencies. This is typically referred to as backward and forward
-compatibility. Spack allows you to specify this in the ``depends_on``
-directive using version ranges.
-
-**Backwards compatibility** means that the package requires at least a
-certain version of its dependency:
+Although some packages require a specific version for their dependencies,
+most can be built with a range of versions. For example, if you are
+writing a package for a legacy Python module that only works with Python
+2.4 through 2.6, this would look like:
 
 .. code-block:: python
 
-   depends_on("python@3.10:")
+   depends_on("python@2.4:2.6")
 
-In this case, the package requires Python 3.10 or newer.
-
-Commonly, packages drop support for older versions of a dependency as
-they release new versions. In Spack you can conveniently add every
-backward compatibility rule as a separate line:
+Version ranges in Spack are *inclusive*, so ``2.4:2.6`` means any version
+greater than or equal to ``2.4`` and up to and including any ``2.6.x``. If
+you want to specify that a package works with any version of Python 3 (or
+higher), this would look like:
 
 .. code-block:: python
 
-   # backward compatibility with Python
-   depends_on("python@3.8:")
-   depends_on("python@3.9:", when="@1.2:")
-   depends_on("python@3.10:", when="@1.4:")
+   depends_on("python@3:")
 
-This means that in general we need Python 3.8 or newer; from version
-1.2 onwards we need Python 3.9 or newer; from version 1.4 onwards we
-need Python 3.10 or newer. Notice that it's fine to have overlapping
-ranges in the ``when`` clauses.
-
-**Forward compatibility** means that the package requires at most a
-certain version of its dependency. Forward compatibility rules are
-necessary when there are breaking changes in the dependency that the
-package cannot handle. In Spack we often add forward compatibility
-bounds only at the time a new, breaking version of a dependency is
-released. As with backward compatibility, it is typical to see a list
-of forward compatibility bounds in a package file as seperate lines:
+Here we leave out the upper bound. If you want to say that a package
+requires Python 2, you can similarly leave out the lower bound:
 
 .. code-block:: python
 
-   # forward compatibility with Python
-   depends_on("python@:3.12", when="@:1.10")
-   depends_on("python@:3.13", when="@:1.12")
+   depends_on("python@:2")
 
-Notice how the ``:`` now appears before the version number both in the
-dependency and in the ``when`` clause. This tells Spack that in general
-we need Python 3.13 or older up to version ``1.12.x``, and up to version
-``1.10.x`` we need Python 3.12 or older. Said differently, forward compatibility
-with Python 3.13 was added in version 1.11, while version 1.13 added forward
-compatibility with Python 3.14.
+Notice that we didn't use ``@:3``. Version ranges are *inclusive*, so
+``@:3`` means "up to and including any 3.x version".
 
-Notice that a version range ``@:3.12`` includes *any* patch version
-number ``3.12.x``, which is often useful when specifying forward compatibility
-bounds.
-
-So far we have seen open-ended version ranges, which is by far the most
-common use case. It is also possible to specify both a lower and an upper bound
-on the version of a dependency, like this:
+You can also simply write
 
 .. code-block:: python
 
-   depends_on("python@3.10:3.12")
+   depends_on("python@2.7")
 
-There is short syntax to specify that a package is compatible with say any
-``3.x`` version:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   depends_on("python@3")
-
-The above is equivalent to ``depends_on("python@3:3")``, which means at least
-Python version 3 and at most any version ``3.x.y``.
+to tell Spack that the package needs Python 2.7.x. This is equivalent to
+``@2.7:2.7``.

-Specifying ABI Compatibility
-----------------------------

-Packages can include ABI-compatibility information using the

-always replace version 1.0, then the package could have:
-
-.. code-block:: python

-   can_splice("foo@1.0", when="@1.1")

-other packages providing the same virtual. For example, ``zlib-ng``
-could specify:
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   can_splice("zlib@1.3.1", when="@2.2+compat")
-
-Some packages have ABI-compatibility that is dependent on matching
-variant values, either for all variants or for some set of
-ABI-relevant variants. In those cases, it is not necessary to specify
-the full combinatorial explosion. The ``match_variants`` keyword can
-cover all single-value variants.
-
-.. code-block:: python
-
-   can_splice("foo@1.1", when="@1.2", match_variants=["bar"])  # any value for bar as long as they're the same
-   can_splice("foo@1.2", when="@1.3", match_variants="*")  # any variant values if all single-value variants match
-
-The concretizer will use ABI compatibility to determine automatic
-splices when :ref:`automatic splicing<automatic_splicing>` is enabled.
-
-.. note::
-
-   The ``can_splice`` directive is experimental, and may be replaced
-   by a higher-level interface in future versions of Spack.

-gitlab.  However, this isn't strictly required, as currently gitlab is the
-only possible output format for pipelines. The ``pipeline-gen`` section
-contains the key information needed to specify attributes for the generated
-jobs.  Notice that it contains a list which has only a single element in
-this case.  In real pipelines it will almost certainly have more elements,
-and in those cases, order is important: spack starts at the bottom of the
-list and works upwards when applying attributes.
+   Also notice the ``before_script`` section. It is required when using any of the
+   default scripts to source the ``setup-env.sh`` script in order to inform
+   the default scripts where to find the ``spack`` executable.
 
-But in this simple case, we use only the special key ``any-job`` to
-indicate that spack should apply the specified attributes (``tags``, ``image``,
-and ``before_script``) to any job it generates.  This includes jobs for
-building/pushing all packages, a ``rebuild-index`` job at the end of the
-pipeline, as well as any ``noop`` jobs that might be needed by gitlab when
-no rebuilds are required.
+Normally ``enable-artifacts-buildcache`` is not recommended in production as it
+results in large binary artifacts getting transferred back and forth between
+gitlab and the runners.  But in this example on gitlab.com where there is no
+shared, persistent file system, and where no secrets are stored for giving
+permission to write to an S3 bucket, ``enabled-buildcache-artifacts`` is the only
+way to propagate binaries from jobs to their dependents.
 
-Something to note is that in this simple case, we rely on spack to
-generate a reasonable script for the package build jobs (it just creates
-a script that invokes ``spack ci rebuild``).
+Also, it is usually a good idea to let the pipeline generate a final "rebuild the
+buildcache index" job, so that subsequent pipeline generation can quickly determine
+which specs are up to date and which need to be rebuilt (it's a good idea for other
+reasons as well, but those are out of scope for this discussion).  In this case we
+have disabled it (using ``rebuild-index: False``) because the index would only be
+generated in the artifacts mirror anyway, and consequently would not be available
+during subsequent pipeline runs.
 
-Another thing to note is the use of the ``SPACK_USER_CONFIG_DIR`` environment
-variable in any generated jobs.  The purpose of this is to make spack
-aware of one final file in the example, the one that contains the mirror
-configuration.  This file, ``mirrors.yaml`` looks like this:
+.. note::
+   With the addition of reproducible builds (#22887) a previously working
+   pipeline will require some changes:
 
-.. code-block:: yaml
+   * In the build-jobs, the environment location changed.
+     This will typically show as a ``KeyError`` in the failing job. Be sure to
+     point to ``${SPACK_CONCRETE_ENV_DIR}``.
 
-   mirrors:
-     buildcache-destination:
-       url: oci://registry.gitlab.com/spack/pipeline-quickstart
-       binary: true
-       access_pair:
-         id_variable: CI_REGISTRY_USER
-         secret_variable: CI_REGISTRY_PASSWORD
+   * When using ``include`` in your environment, be sure to make the included
+     files available in the build jobs. This means adding those files to the
+     artifact directory. Those files will also be missing in the reproducibility
+     artifact.
 
-
-Note the name of the mirror is ``buildcache-destination``, which is required
-as of Spack 0.23 (see below for more information).  The mirror url simply
-points to the container registry associated with the project, while
-``id_variable`` and ``secret_variable`` refer to to environment variables
-containing the access credentials for the mirror.
-
-When spack builds packages for this example project, they will be pushed to
-the project container registry, where they will be available for subsequent
-jobs to install as dependencies, or for other pipelines to use to build runnable
-container images.
+   * Because the location of the environment changed, including files with
+     relative path may have to be adapted to work both in the project context
+     (generation job) and in the concrete env dir context (build job).
