This workflow automatically backports merged pull requests to specified branches based on labels. Until now, this was done manually and was kinda annoying. With this workflow, we can simply add a label like backport-to-support/2.14 to a pull request, and when it gets merged into the main branch, a backport pull request will be automatically created targeting the support/2.14 branch. This workflow uses currently the yhabteab/backbot GitHub Action to handle the backporting process. The result will roughly look this:

@cla-bot cla-bot bot added the cla/signed label Oct 8, 2025
@yhabteab yhabteab added the area/ci CI/CD label Oct 8, 2025

I like the general idea, but given the privileges it grants to a third-party action, this has to be vetted carefully. So probably nothing we'll do on short notice.
