Just commit the same changes to the branch and mention "backported" in
the commit message.

Where were you 10 months ago, when I wrote that this is what will
happen, if the instructions are left at what was written back then?
If some of those who are mightily confused now, as I predicted they
will be, supported what I said back then, perhaps we could have had
enough leverage to insist on better write-ups. But nooo! everyone who
cared to reply claimed that this is all either obvious or too personal
to describe, and some even said I'm a "bullshitter".
Now you-all get to learn this stuff the hard way.
