The new ${pull_description}placeholder allows you to copy the original pull request's description to the backported PR. This can be helpful if the body contains links to ticketing systems, related documents etc.
This release introduces a new created_pull_numbersoutput that you can use in successive steps. For example, label the created pull requests or trigger your CI on the created pull requests. Massive thanks to @GuyAv46 for this contribution.
This release introduces a new experimental input that you can use to configure experimental features. We encourage everyone to try them out and share feedback.
As a first experimental feature, this release adds detect_merge_method. When enabled, it cherry-picks the resulting commits based on the detected merge method. Give it a try if you're using the Squash and merge or Rebase and merge merge method for your pull requests, and please report any issues you encounter.
To enable merge method detection add the following to your backport workflow:
