Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe:

Due to lack of AWS Amplify functionality we can't effectively use PR Preview feature:

As result, we want to create PR previews using AWS CLI, but after testing we found that aws amplify create-branch call can't replicate behaviour of automatically created PR previews.

Even though it's possible to set --stage PULL_REQUEST resulting branch missing destinationBranch and sourceBranch properties and as result it's not being treated as PR branch by Amplify Hosting. It seems like those properties are not available in Public APIs.

Describe how you'd like this feature to work

AWS Amplify allows me to create PR preview branch via CLI, something like:

aws amplify create-branch --pr-id 3333 --enable-automatic-build

Which in turn will replicate behaviour of automatically generated PR preview, namely:

  1. Create PR preview branch
  2. Add status check to PR in git provider
  3. Publish PR preview URL in PR comments
