Important update information
No changes have been made to the .htaccess, web.config, robots.txt, or default settings.php files in this release, so upgrading custom versions of those files is not necessary if your site is already on the previous release.
*Drupal 8.9.x is a long-term support release that will receive security coverage until November 2021. Sites should plan to update to Drupal 9.1 or later soon.
