…ages The queued/successful_merge templates were telling developers to open a separate cherry-pick PR to every phantom hotfix branch in the cascade. This is wrong: the repo can have dozens of old post-GA hotfix branches, none of which need a cherry-pick from this PR. The cherry-pick reminder is only appropriate when the Jira ticket explicitly carries a hotfix fix version (handled separately by PendingHotfixVersionReminder). The merge messages should simply note that the hotfix branches were not targeted and were left untouched, with no call to action. Co-Authored-By: Claude Sonnet 4.6 <noreply@anthropic.com>
