    Instructions to run pending background migrations · 95f58495
    Harsh Chouraria authored
    This change adds commands to re-run all migrations found marked as
    pending and remaining stuck in such a state
    
    It expands on an existing area of troubleshooting
    background migrations while specifically
    targeting the pending state
    situation instead of migration
    jobs that are scheduled but remain un-executed.
    
    It also adds an upgrade note to version 13.6 section where a background
    migration was introduced with a bug in it that can
    cause it to show up as pending in all releases after it. This was only
    recently noticed after we introduced new commands
    that check for pending background migration jobs
    as part of checking background migrations prior to upgrades.
    
    A fix for the 13.6 bug should be included in GitLab 14.9 onwards via
    https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/merge_requests/81879
    and following the added instructions should help
    clear the migration.
