## Pull Request Criteria
### Pull Request Criteria

In general, all PHP code committed to the Gutenberg repository since the date of the final Gutenberg release that was included in [the _last_ stable WP Core release](https://developer.wordpress.org/block-editor/contributors/versions-in-wordpress/) should be considered for back merging to WP Core.

There are however certain exceptions to that rule. PRs with the following criteria do _not_ require back-merging to WP Core:

- Does not contain changes to PHP code.
- Has label `Backport from WordPress Core` - this code is already in WP Core.
- Has label `Backport from WordPress Core` - this code is already in WP Core and is being synchronized back to Gutenberg.
- Has label `Backport to WordPress Core` - this code has already been syncrhonized to WP Core.
