             Create it from the relevant last tagged release like so: 
             git branch 0.52.x 0.52.4
git checkout 0.52.x 
             Next cherry-pick the commits containing the bug fixes: 
             git cherry-pick COMMIT 
             Write the release notes in the branch, and update the version number in  version.py . Then push the branch: 
             git push -u origin 0.52.x 
             Once the tests have completed, publish the release from that branch target using the GitHub  Draft a new release  form. 
             Finally, cherry-pick the commit with the release notes and version number bump across to  main : 
             git checkout main
git cherry-pick COMMIT
