[21u Communication] JDK 21.0.2 changes pushed

[Robert Mckenna]

Hi Christoph,

In fact, we hadn't forgotten to add these tags, but we do seem to have underestimated the demand for them. Explanation:

We have moved to a new process for merging the CPU content to the open repo. Enhancements to skara have made it possible to merge this content via a PR. This means that integrators no longer need direct push access to the master repositories. (this is desirable for several reasons) Unfortunately as a result we will no longer be able to push the tags directly either. Instead, what we have decided to do is use skara to add the ga & +0 tags after the PR has been integrated by commenting on the relevant commit. (e.g. https://github.com/openjdk/jdk21u/commit/375769c6986866210a0f36aad580e3ac8e9eb068)

Sergey (cc'd) and I have just been discussing it and he requested the addition of the final promotion tag too (in this case jdk-21.0.2+13) which I have just done.

Adding the tags for all every promotion would be time consuming and error prone so I don't currently intend to do that in the absence of any substantive objections. We will have to rethink our new approach if this is a problem.

    -Rob

Hi Rob,

looks like you forgot to also push the individual build tags (e.g. via git push --follow-tags). Can you please publish them as well?

Thanks
Christoph
