Steps to reproduce

In latest release there is no merged into main PR

It can be easily viewed

  • by filter
  • and by downloading attached to release source code compared with main branch:
        static constexpr std::array appLanguageTags{
            L"en-US",
            L"de-DE",
            L"es-ES",
            L"fr-FR",
            L"it-IT",
            L"ja",
            L"ko",
            L"pt-BR",
            L"qps-PLOC",
            L"qps-PLOCA",
            L"qps-PLOCM",
            L"ru",
            L"zh-Hans",
            L"zh-Hant",
        };
    
    in this list are absent 2 languages:
            L"sr-Cyrl-RS",
            L"uk-UA",
    

And released build has no new translated language from this PR

But release tag was created after merge of PR into main:

  • merged at Dec 12.
  • release tag Dec 17.

Why released build has no new commits (new translation)?

Expected Behavior

I expected to see new translation merged into main in Terminal release as it was merged into main before tag

Actual Behavior

No commits in release tag

Hey there! I know you're excited to see your new translation in the app, but we do not make releases off the main branch. We maintain servicing branches where we put bug fixes, and because we have a huge audience of millions of users we are strict about what we backport.

Your translations will be released with Windows Terminal 1.25; first into the Preview channel and then into the Stable channel.

If you'd like to use them sooner than that, you can always use Terminal Canary! It is our nightly release, and it may be unstable.
