Merge Cascade

Merge changes down the chain of release branches: master → X.0 → X.1 → … → X.N, resolving conflicts and pushing each branch to its configured remote.

Arguments

• Optional: starting branch (default: master)
• Optional: ending branch (default: highest minor branch)

Examples: /merge-cascade, /merge-cascade 9.0 9.2 (cascade from 9.0 to 9.2 only)

Steps

1. Ensure clean working tree

Run git status --porcelain. If there are uncommitted changes, stop and ask the user to commit or stash first.

2. Discover the branch chain
