Cherry pick a pull request

I don't know if this is the best way to do this, but here goes. Suppose we have a pull request that has already been merged into main, and now we want to open another pull request with the same set of commits, but this time we want to open it against the release branch.

1. Find the sha of the merge commit.

2. Switch to release, and create a new branch.

   git checkout release
   git checkout -b backport-foo
   

3. Cherry pick using -m 1. Note that this'll create a single commit that references the merge, this'll not cherry pick the individual commits. This might not be what you want, but that was enough for my current purpose.

   git cherry-pick -m 1 <merge-commit-id>
   

4. Open a pull request against release. You can do it from the GitHub's web UI, or via their CLI.

   git push -u origin HEAD
   gh pr create --base release --fill --web
