  title: GitLab Create and Protect a Release Branch
  summary: Cut a new branch from a ref and immediately apply push/merge protection.
  description: >-
    A release-hardening flow. The workflow creates a branch from the supplied
    ref and then protects it, controlling whether developers may push or merge,
    so the branch is guarded the moment it is created. Every step spells out its
    request inline so the flow can be read and executed without opening the
    underlying OpenAPI description.
