Problem Definition

Currently there are 2 scenarios for Automatic Branch Merging:

• Production -> Development
• Release-1 -> Release-2 -> Release-3 -> ... -> Development

There is no scenario that flows from Release to Production to Development

Suggested Solution

Update the second scenario to:

• Release-1 -> Release-2 -> Release-3 -> ... -> Production -> Development

Why this is important

Saves the need for an extra pull request to merge code going into Release branches into the Production branch.

Workaround

Create a separate pull request to merge code going into Release branches into the Production branch.
