 These are old changelogs (the changelogs we originally published with the
 releases). I don't think we should (basically) change history at this
 point.

 There is one changelog per apk per release - so one for armv7 and another
 for x86. I only created one for the entire release, but it seems Google
 used that changelog and automatically created one for each apk.

 I created #29834 for this. I think we can update them later.

 Thanks for noticing this. Removed.

 the respective icon and text for the stable one as well given that we want
 to have different series. Not sure how that works, though.

 Yes, I see two options here. The first option is we follow tor-browser-
 build and create one branch per series (`master`, `maint-8.5`, `nightly`
 (?)). The second option is only using the master branch and creating a
 different `fastlane/` directory for each series, e.g. `fastlane_stable/`,
 `fastlane_alpha/`, `fastlane_nightly/`. Actually, if we use the second
 option, then we can create a common directory as `fastlane/` or
 `fastlane_shared/` where all of the shared files are stored (like the
 descriptions) and then we can create symlinks from both
 `image_repository/` and `fastlane/` in each series, as needed, for all
 shared resources.

 I can begin this in the next patch.

 I pushed a fixup commit on `bug26844_0`.
