Issues resolved in a release are merged into subsequent releases chronologically AND lexicographically.
For example, issues resolved in 4.3.12, which was released on 3/12/2021, are resolved in 4.5.6, which was released on 3/26/2021 and also resolved in 5.1.0, which was released on 3/15/2021, and so on.
However, issues resolved in 4.3.12, which was released on 3/12/2021 are not addressed in 4.5.5 because 4.5.5 was released on 2/10/2021. Even though 4.5.5 is lexicographically higher than 4.3.12, it is chronologically older than 4.3.12.
Therefore, bugs fixed up to version 6.1.12 carried over to version 6.2.8.
