* '''All changes''' must meet the [https://developer.mozilla.org/En/Developer_Guide/Committing_Rules_and_Responsibilities general checkin rules]. You must check the tree before pushing, and watch the tree for failures after pushing.
* Patches must have the '''approval-mozilla-aurora+''' flag in Bugzilla. To request approval, set the approval-mozilla-aurora? flag on the patch you wish to check in. Exception: If patches only make changes to tests, test harnesses or anything else that does not affect the shipped builds, they may land with self approval (use a=testonly, a=npotb etc).
* Patches nominated for aurora should:
** not change any localizable strings.

* In the normal development process, no changes will land on mozilla-release except [[RapidRelease/Calendar|regular merges from mozilla-beta]] every six weeks.
* Changes to the release branch are limited to urgent "chemspills" like zero-day security vulnerabilities and other unplanned emergencies. Any changes to this branch will be directly overseen by [[Releases/Drivers|release drivers]]. They are also subject to the same restrictions as [[#mozilla-beta]], including string freeze and UUID freeze.
