So not in string freeze if you added one string, is it? :-)

I just translated the string in French for that branch, then hit the
button to commit from Damned lies with a cherry-pick to the main
branch. I got an error:

Une erreur est survenue pendant l’application de votre action :
L’opération de « commit » a échoué. L’erreur est : « [Errno 1]
Command: "['git', 'push', 'origin', 'release/4.x']", Error: Warning:

Why is the release branch protected?
