+#!/bin/bash

+# Uses `git cherry-pick -x` to backport a merge commit to an older branch.
+#
+# Usage:
+#   First checkout the old-stable branch, that is the target for the backport.
+#   Then `git-backport-merge MERGE_REF [REFS...]`
+#     MERGE_REF is the merge commit that should be backported.
+#     [REFS...] is the commits that should be backported. If omitted,
+#       it automatically takes the parent commits of the merge commit.
