Summary

This task captures the work necessary to generate a Tekton task to automatically generate and push new release versioned branches on all repositories in a given manifest as part of automated release cut over activities.

Output

A Tekton task that, when armed with the correct access credentials, will take his inputs a target destination release, a target destination release branch name, and an input manifest and generate and push the relevant release or backplane versioned branches to every repository in the manifest.

If this task finds a pre-existing branch that matches the target release branch, it should notify that such a branch has been found, record that information, and continue.

This task could be formatted in such a way that it can be gated by previous tasks that check for the completion of prerequisite steps in the automated release cut over process.
