# Breaking Changes
|
|
|
|
This document describes QMK's Breaking Change process. A Breaking Change is any change which modifies how QMK behaves in a way that in incompatible or potentially dangerous. We limit these changes so that users can have confidence that updating their QMK tree will not break their keymaps.
|
|
|
|
The breaking change period is when we will merge PR's that change QMK in dangerous or unexpected ways. There is a built-in period of testing so we are confident that any problems caused are rare or unable to be predicted.

## What has been included in past Breaking Changes?
|
|
|
|
* [2020 Nov 28](ChangeLog/20201128.md)
|
|
* [2020 Aug 29](ChangeLog/20200829.md)
|
|
* [2020 May 30](ChangeLog/20200530.md)

|
|
## When is the next Breaking Change?
|
|
|
|
The next Breaking Change is scheduled for February 27, 2021.
|
|
|
|
### Important Dates
|
|
|
|
* [x] 2020 Nov 28 - `develop` is created. Each push to `master` is subsequently merged to `develop`
|
|
* [ ] 2021 Jan 30 - `develop` closed to new PR's.
|
|
* [ ] 2021 Jan 30 - Call for testers.
|
|
* [ ] 2021 Feb 25 - `master` is locked, no PR's merged.
|
|
* [ ] 2021 Feb 27 - Merge `develop` to `master`.
|
|
* [ ] 2021 Feb 27 - `master` is unlocked. PR's can be merged again.
|
|
|
|
## What changes will be included?
|
|
|
|
To see a list of breaking change candidates you can look at the [`breaking_change` label](https://github.com/qmk/qmk_firmware/pulls?q=is%3Aopen+label%3Abreaking_change+is%3Apr). New changes might be added between now and when `develop` is closed, and a PR with that label applied is not guaranteed to be merged.
|
|
|
|
If you want your breaking change to be included in this round you need to create a PR with the `breaking_change` label and have it accepted before `develop` closes. After `develop` closes no new breaking changes will be accepted.
|
|
|
|
Criteria for acceptance:
|
|
|
|
* PR is complete and ready to merge
|
|
* PR has a ChangeLog
|
|

# Checklists

## Creating the `develop` branch

|
* [ ] Edit `readme.md`
|
|
* [ ] Add a big notice at the top that this is a testing branch.
|
|
* [ ] Include a link to this document
|
|
* [ ] `git commit -m 'Branch point for <DATE> Breaking Change'`
|
|
* [ ] `git tag breakpoint_<YYYY>_<MM>_<DD>`
|
|
* [ ] `git tag <next_version>` # Prevent the breakpoint tag from confusing version incrementing
|
|
* [ ] `git push origin develop`
|
|
