Comment on the source PR when a backport fails - #24872
Draft
Kyle-Neale wants to merge 2 commits into
Draft
Conversation
Restore the pre-`--from-pr` behavior of reporting backport failures on the merged PR itself. When one or more target branches fail, port-commit now posts a best-effort comment listing each failed base and a manual retry hint. A comment failure is warned, never raised, so it can't mask the backport result.

What does this PR do?
When
ddev release port-commit --from-prfails to backport a merged PR to one or more target branches, it now posts a comment on that PR listing each failed base and a manual retry command.Motivation
The old
tibdex/backportautomation commented on the source PR when a backport failed. After consolidating ontoport-commit, a failure was only visible as a red workflow run — never on the PR the developer merged. This restores that visibility.Review checklist (to be filled by reviewers)
