Remove main-to-dev inter-branch merge automation#7315
Merged
Conversation
The dev branch has been deprecated and merged into main. The inter-branch merge workflow and its configuration were still active, causing unnecessary PRs to be created that had to be manually closed. This removes: - .github/workflows/inter-branch-merge-flow.yml (the GitHub Action) - github-merge-flow.jsonc (the merge flow configuration) Co-authored-by: Copilot <[email protected]>

Changes:
- Removed the GitHub Actions workflow file that automated inter-branch merging
- Removed the merge flow configuration file that specified the main-to-dev merge rule
