For fixes that are to go into a release after the release branch has been cut we typically employ the use of a cherry pick tracker.

### Issue Tracker for Patch releases

For patch releases issue tracker needs to be created. For patch release, we require all cherry-pick changes to have links to either a high-priority GitHub issue or a CI failure from previous RC. An example of this would look like:
* https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/51886
* https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/issues/128436

Only following issues are accepted:
1. Fixes to regressions against previous major version (e.g. regressions introduced in 1.13.0 from 1.12.0 are pickable for 1.13.1)
