SQ 6.6 LTS deployed to server (no container)

We have several branches of the same code base used to support several release of the same project. On the main/trunk branch we have made many marks of code lines as false positives with comments.

Is there a way to backport these false positives to other (earlier) branches?

Additionally, we plan to move to the latest 9.9 LTS. Noting in case there are new features in later versions that might help in this regard.

I couldn’t find an existing topic here, I did find the link below in another forum.

Appreciate any help from the community.
