Released, please refer to #89

Current Release: 0.72.4

Conversations on this thread are limited:

• major release issues.
• qualified cherry-pick requests of commits on main that did not make the previous patch version.

Please include a link to the specific commit on main to be cherry-picked, for example: facebook/react-native@bd2b7d6

In other words, if you cannot point to a particular commit on main, then your request likely belongs as a new issue.

[efstathiosntonas]

@Titozzz this is now merged

Please pick facebook/react-native@1a1a798. It's causing a significant crash rate for Android apps in production that use the maintainVisibleContentPosition property.

[mmmoussa]

Support for the property on Android was added in v0.72.0

Could we pick facebook/react-native@f7219ec ?
I did the cherry-pick already, since that caused issues in my 0.71 request: facebook/react-native#39033

[fortmarek]

Picked 👍

[birdofpreyru]

Can we pick facebook/react-native@894b883? Without it components with more than 256 props may crash apps in a mysterious manner, and, for example, it affects react-native-webview library when used with the new arch.

Picked 👍

[Saadnajmi]

Can we pick facebook/react-native#37914 and facebook/react-native#39037 ? The former allows direct debugging on JSC with iOS 16.4, while the latter makes the change backwards compatible to earlier versions of Xcode :)

[fortmarek]

Picked both 👍

[ThushalIntervest]

I just figured this happen because I used react-native-blob-util library. They did not add a fix for that. Sorry for my misunderstood.

[kelset]

headsup: when releasing 0.72.4 metro-config was bumped to 0.76.8 facebook/react-native@40ea8ff but despite what the commit message says, the CLI was not bumped to the corrispective version 11.3.7 https://github.com/react-native-community/cli/commits/11.x.

This means that currently both 0.76.8 and 0.76.7 of metro-config are getting pulled in when creating a react-native package, which we want to avoid.

CLI needs to be bumped to 11.3.7 to rectify this.
