How to adopt a cascading merge request strategy with GitLab Flow

What this post added

This post introduces the 'ucascade' bot and details its deployment on Kubernetes, configuration via a JSON file, and integration with GitLab webhooks. It describes how to set up project access tokens and configure the bot to automatically create cascading merge requests across release branches when a change is merged into a primary branch. This automates a previously manual and time-consuming process for applying fixes to multiple stable branches.
