This will add the following sections to the gitaly update merge request
What should I do if this pipeline is red?

- Open the pipelines tab and click Run Pipeline.
- This will run a pipeline for merge result
- If look gitaly related, notify the gitaly team on
#g_create_gitaly
slack channel.
What should I do in case of merge conflicts?
If someone updates GITALY_SERVER_VERSION

In such unlikely circumstances, the better option will be closing this merge request and deleting the release-tools/update-gitaly
branch.
