To backport manually, run these commands in your terminal:

# Fetch latest updates from GitHub
git fetch
# Create a new working tree
git worktree add .worktrees/backport-branch-8-6 branch-8-6
# Navigate to the new working tree
cd .worktrees/backport-branch-8-6
# Create a new branch
git switch --create backport-1049-to-branch-8-6
# Cherry-pick the merged commit of this pull request and resolve the conflicts
git cherry-pick 9ff80230b3f34271c5d28d4a4656dbee46bcc739,71ac2526c135e2fcaa98472045b84c41c20050f1,bef4c7a99114bb293afc797c076cecbde25c1eef,36aa5f804f8b53f6f3c9bb7aed2c450284a9efb1,e5914ba66f125547656870d712d3925a650470fa,f624efbcb577306e61a51b770488b4c86b4be67f,2e3dd12040b5c7a860a5a51c56c2ee5179f2965b,8572ba70c342e28bee42d36184954c425fb520ad,5c7932ebdc7c1c21116604a7696e63ecf291404d,23bceff01a72fd3c9e6fdbcbc2e119aef447e589,5cafe913b326f080e34c2af16804f0459be573d3,56e1b8187003300e9e6c1e16cb562559f3c97ba4
# Push it to GitHub
git push --set-upstream origin backport-1049-to-branch-8-6
# Go back to the original working tree
cd ../..
# Delete the working tree
git worktree remove .worktrees/backport-branch-8-6

Then, create a pull request where the base branch is branch-8-6 and the compare/head branch is backport-1049-to-branch-8-6.
