@@ -55,6 +55,14 @@ has a major bug:
- The [nightly job](https://github.com/neovim/bot-ci/blob/master/ci/nightly.sh)
will update the release assets based on the `stable` tag.
The neovim repository includes a backport [github action](https://github.com/zeebe-io/backport-action).
In order to trigger the action, a PR must be labeled with a label matching the
form `backport release-0.X`. If the label is applied before the PR is merged,
the backport will be filed automatically against the target branch. Otherwise,
comment `\backport` on the merged PR *after* the label has been applied to trigger
a backport. Note, the PR must have a description in the issue body, or the backport
will fail.
