v6.0.0
Add support for multiple path properties (#273)
This feature makes it possible to list commits that only touch certain files. This is useful in monorepos where many developers work on different projects within a single repo.
backport --path my/project1 --path my/project2
Or via the config file:
{
"commitPaths": ["my/project1", "my/project2"]
}Show hint about missing backports (#276, #282)
Sometimes it is not possible to backport a change cleanly due to conflicts. In many cases the conflicts are caused by missing backports. It is often easier and safer to perform the missing backports than manually resolving the conflict. To help the user do this the backport tool will now suggest what is causing the conflict, and which backports are missing.
Details view (#277)
The new details view shows the usual interactive list view but with a little more info and clickable links, enabling the user to jump straight to existing pull requests.
backport --details
Add --reviewer option (#280)
This option makes it possible to request a review when creating the backport:
backport --reviewer sqren
Add status comment to source pull request (#281)
This will add a comment to the source pull request (the pull request that was backported) to indicate the resulting backport pull requests.
