+# Merge Previous Release Branches Script
+#
+# This script is triggered when a new release branch is created (e.g., release/2.1.2).
+# It finds all previous release branches and merges them into the new release branch.
+#
+# Key behaviors:
+# - Merges ALL older release branches into the new one
+# - For merge conflicts, favors the destination branch (new release)
+# - Both branches remain open after merge
+# - Fails fast on errors to prevent pushing partial merges
+#
+# Environment variables:
+# - NEW_RELEASE_BRANCH: The newly created release branch (e.g., release/2.1.2)
+
