fix for #2692 #1

# This workflow will attempt to port a merged pull request to
# the branch specified in a "port to" label (if exists)
name: Port merged Pull Request
# Only run for merged PRs against the "main" or maintenance branches
# We allow this to run for `pull_request_target` so that github secrets are available
# (This is required when the PR comes from a forked repo)
