Sometimes it can be helpful to continue from a broken cherry-pick. This PR adds another option which can be used to determine the version and pr number from the current branch name instead of reading the config.yaml file. --------- Signed-off-by: Andrew Thornton <art27@cantab.net> |

README
`backport` ========== `backport` is a command to help create backports of PRs. It backports a provided PR from main on to a released version. It will create a backport branch, cherry-pick the PR's merge commit, adjust the commit message and then push this back up to your fork's remote. The default version will read from `docs/config.yml`. You can override this using the option `--version`. The upstream branches will be fetched, using the remote `origin`. This can be overrided using `--upstream`, and fetching can be avoided using `--no-fetch`. By default the branch created will be called `backport-$PR-$VERSION`. You can override this using the option `--backport-branch`. This branch will be created from `--release-branch` which is `release/$(VERSION)` by default and will be pulled from `$(UPSTREAM)`. The merge-commit as determined by the github API will be used as the SHA to cherry-pick. You can override this using `--cherry-pick`. The commit message will be amended to add the `Backport` header. `--no-amend-message` can be set to stop this from happening. If cherry-pick is successful the backported branch will be pushed up to your fork using your remote. These will be determined using `git remote -v`. You can set your fork name using `--fork-user` and your remote name using `--remote`. You can avoid pushing using `--no-push`. If the push is successful, `xdg-open` will be called to open a backport url. You can stop this using `--no-xdg-open`. Installation ============ ```bash go install contrib/backport/backport.go ```
