Automatic backporting workflow from 4.1 to 4.2 by chrisvest · Pull Request #16273 · netty/netty

chrisvest · 2026-02-13T18:59:31Z

Motivation:
We often backport PRs from 4.2 to 4.1.
Because these branches are very similar, cherry-picking often applies cleanly.

Modification:
Add a workflow that triggers when a is PRs merged into 4.2 with the needs-cherry-pick-4.1 label, or when a merged PR is labelled with needs-cherry-pick-4.1.
The workflow triggers on pull_request_target so that it runs in the context of the base branch, rather than the PR, which gives it access to repository secrets – this is safe because we're not running any code that's been added or modified by the PR in question.
The workflow checks out the full git history, and tries to cherry-pick the merge commit onto 4.1 and create a pull-request. Finally, the workflow adds a comment to the original PR, linking the backport PR if the cherry-pick succeeded, or reporting failure if it didn't.
The back port branch are pushed back to the netty/netty repository using the same SSH key we use to push release tags.

Result:
Easier to keep 4.1 up to date with bug fixes we do in 4.2.
This PR attempts to fix the issues encountered with #16269 and #16271

This reverts commit a2b9c6d.

The workflow must run on the `pull_request_target` trigger instead of `pull_request`, which is in the context of the base branch rather than the merge commit, in order to have access to secrets.

Since the backport job can trigger on both merging and labeling there's a chance that multiple jobs can be enqueued for the same PR. Add concurrency control groups based on the merge commit, and cancel previously submitted or in-progress jobs to that we only run on the latest.

Since the workflow now runs in the base repository context, the GITHUB_TOKEN should in theory grant sufficient access to push branches, open pull requests and add comments. Thus we no longer need to install SSH keys or use a Personal Access Token.

The head_sha is something that theoretically can change.

The `pull_request.labels` array is always available so I don't think we need to differentiate between the PR being merged or labeled – just that the final result is labeled and merged.

This is probably still need to, as the documentation say, "run authenticated git commands".

Reapply "Automatic backporting workflow from 4.1 to 4.2 (netty#16271)"

857101d

This reverts commit a2b9c6d.

Fix the execution context

506e4b5

The workflow must run on the `pull_request_target` trigger instead of `pull_request`, which is in the context of the base branch rather than the merge commit, in order to have access to secrets.

Simplify permissions

76b5981

Since the workflow now runs in the base repository context, the GITHUB_TOKEN should in theory grant sufficient access to push branches, open pull requests and add comments. Thus we no longer need to install SSH keys or use a Personal Access Token.

Control concurrency on pull request number

421623c

The head_sha is something that theoretically can change.

Simplify trigger condition

c5f043b

The `pull_request.labels` array is always available so I don't think we need to differentiate between the PR being merged or labeled – just that the final result is labeled and merged.

Configure the SSH key for git again

0a793a2

This is probably still need to, as the documentation say, "run authenticated git commands".

Use outcome instead of outputs for determining success or failure of …
