+# chore: Re-apply the repo-ci-baseline Template
+
+- **Release tag:** `v0.0.52`
+- **Source PR:** [#254](https://github.com/mpaulosky/IssueTracker/pull/254)
+
+## PR description
+
+### Why
+
+Re-Apply the repo-ci-baseline Template so this repo carries the Template changes from mpaulosky/dotfiles#176, mpaulosky/dotfiles#178 and mpaulosky/dotfiles#180.
+
+### What changed
+
+- `58619ee` Apply commit, `apply.sh` output alone: brings mpaulosky/dotfiles#176, mpaulosky/dotfiles#178 and mpaulosky/dotfiles#180.
+  - `.github/scripts/tests/pr-automerge.test.mjs`
+  - `.github/workflows/pr-automerge.yml`
+
+### Verification
+
+- The Apply commit is exactly `apply.sh`'s output on a branch up to date with `main`.
+- The pre-push gate (`scripts/gate.sh`) passed on `58619ee`.
