PR to Production Branch (Release)

Create release PR from main to production for semantic-release.

Workflow

1. Fetch latest from remote (required first):

   • git fetch origin production main --quiet
   • IMPORTANT: Always use remote refs (origin/production, origin/main) for comparison. Local branches may be stale.

2. Gather context (parallel):

   • git log origin/production..origin/main --oneline for commits to release
   • git ls-remote --tags origin | grep -E 'refs/tags/v[0-9]+\.[0-9]+\.[0-9]+$' | sed 's/.*refs\/tags\///' | sort -V | tail -1 for latest release version from remote
   • git rev-list --count origin/production..origin/main to check if main is ahead of production

3. Analyze commits:

   • Categorize by type: feat, fix, chore, etc.
   • Calculate expected version bump
