[The official Skara documentation](https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/SKARA/Backports) describes in detail how to work with the tooling to create backport PRs on GitHub or using the CLI tools. As described in the documentation, the [`/backport`](https://wiki.openjdk.java.net/display/SKARA/Commit+Commands#CommitCommands-/backport) command can be used to create the backport PR. If a backport PR is manually created, set the title to `Backport <original commit hash>`.
