Adds a bot that automatically opens MRs into the stable2407 branch when the A4-needs-backport label is applied to a merged MR.

TODO:

  • Settle on label vs error message trade-off (resolved)

docs:

Backporting

This document explains how to backport a merged PR from master to one of the stable* branches. Backports should only be used to fix bugs or security issues - never to introduce new features.

Steps

  1. Fix a bug through a PR that targets master.
  2. Add label A4-needs-backport to the PR.
  3. Merge the PR into master.
  4. Wait for the bot to open the backport PR.
  5. Ensure the change is audited or does not need audit.
  6. Merge the backport PR.

The label can also be added after the PR is merged.

Example

For example here where the dev triggered the process by adding the label after merging:

backport-ex2

What is the plan for the next stable? Is this action going to be adjusted or extended with another job?

Yes good Q. The CI action supports multiple branches. So we can add variants to the target_branches entry.
Alternatively if we opt for the label approach, then we would need to add a new label like A4-needs-backport-stable2410.

I tested the first approach in a private repo:

The option with the target branches looks not too bad. It is probably easier than to create a new label for each release.
