# Node.js Backports We no longer maintain our own backport script. For backporting V8 changes to Node.js, there is a useful script in [node-core-utils][1]. You can use the `git node v8 backport` command, which will bump the necessary V8 version numbers depending on the specific branch. See the [Node.js documentation][2] on V8 backports for a guide.
