If you want to propose backporting a fix that is already merged in master, use the Cherry-Pick option in the web interface and select the master-2.6 branch as target.
Alternatively, checkout the master-2.6 branch locally and use the git cherry-pick -x COMMIT-ID command (with an appropriate COMMIT-ID) and push the resulting commit.
Kind regards,
Peter
