How do you handle PRs that are for release trains/branches?

We don’t filter on branches, so any merged work counts.

By default all pull requests are considered equally weighted, but there’s a set of labels that allow you to optionally influence that weighting (using basic XS to XL t-shirt sizing), so you could already tag it XS and have it count for very little. We actually had that question from a user yesterday, and we might add a way to ignore a pull request entirely (i.e., give it a weight of 0).
