The /backport commit command and /backport pull request command can be used to quickly create a backport pull request for a given commit. Just navigate to the original commit or pull request in source code hosting provider's web UI and add a comment consisting of /backport <repo> [<branch>]. If the commit does not apply clean on the target repository then a message will be shown for the files with conflicts.

The pull request will be created from a branch in a shared fork of the target repository. On GitHub, this repository is owned by the openjdk-bots organization.

This invitation needs to be accepted to be able to further update the backport pull request with more changes.
