At the time of running 8.2.0-alpha0, create FCV upgrade PR pointing to master branch, run a patch to test it. Please reference: WRITING-8774 Changes to "Guide to Updating FCV Constants" for non-Major Releases for more details.
Note: This must be completed before tagging the master branch with the next alpha tag or the build will become very red.


Immediately after branching 8.1, tag the commit in master that upgraded the FCV with 8.2.0-alpha by using the following command:

 mr git tag-release --commit <hash> --version 8.2.0-alpha
