Track hotfixes via patch version pattern

Any merged Pull Requests (PRs) with a PR title, Source branch, or PR tags containing a version number in the format x.y.z (where z > 0) can be identified as a hotfix.

This feature is currently flag-based and is off by default.

Steps to Enable the Hotfix Flag

To start using this new hotfix pattern, you need to enable the corresponding flag in your organization's configuration settings. Follow these steps:

  1. Navigate to the Configurations page within your Hivel dashboard.

  2. Find the flag related to the new hotfix pattern. It will be listed among the available configuration options.

  3. Switch the flag to "On" to enable the new hotfix pattern.

Once the flag is enabled, the system will automatically recognize any merged PRs with a version number in the specified format (x.y.z where z > 0) as hotfixes.

All current hotfix patterns will continue to function without interruption. Both the new and existing hotfix patterns will be recognized for calculation of "Change Failure Rate" and "MTTR" metrics.
