New signature of backportRun

const result = await backportRun({
  options: {
    accessToken: '...',
    repoOwner: 'elastic',
    repoName: 'kibana',
    pullNumber: 12
  }
});

v7.4.0

Don’t exit with error if individual backports fail (#316)
This limits the usage of process.exit(1) to only be used in cli mode and only for unexpected/critical errors.

v7.3.0

• Feature: Output json (instead of text) when running in --ci mode (#300)
• Feature: Add support for merge commits (#303)

v7.0.0

Improve clone speed for big repos (#293)
When initiating the backport process from an existing repository, the clone process can be sped significantly by cloning the local repository instead of the remote repository. For big repositories this changed the clone time from 15 minutes to less than 1 minute.

Bug fix: Show commits in list regardless of merge method (#297)
A bug introduced previously caused some commits to not show up if the resulting pull request was merged or rebased, as opposed to squash merged.
With the fix all commits should again be displayed regardless of merge method.

v6.1.5

--until and --since flags (#286)

Ability to filter commits by date

backport --all --since "2020-02-03" --until "2020-02-04"

--dir flag (#288)

By default the temporary repo will be checked out in ~/.backport/repositories/{project}. This option allows the user to specify the location of the temporary repository for the project.

--publishStatusComment (#288)

This setting makes it possible to disable posting of status comments on source pull requests

v6.1.1

• username is no longer required but instead inferred from accessToken
• upstream has been replaced by repoOwner and repoName
• --all has been changed to a cli-only flag. It now simply sets author=null.

Public API:

• Add getCommits API: Retrieve information about commits and whether they are backported
• Rename run to backportRun
