Backporting

The Mercurius repository supports backporting PRs that also need to be applied to older versions.

How do we do this?

As soon as one opens a PR against the default branch, and the change should be backported to v8.x, you should add the corresponding backport label. For example, if we need to backport something to v8.x, we add the following label:

  • backport v8.x

And you are done! If there are no conflicts, the action will open a separate PR with the backport for review.

If the PR can't be automatically backported, the GitHub bot will comment the failure on the PR.
