+            This PR merges the latest changes from the upstream repository:
+            - **Repository**: $UPSTREAM_REPO
+            - **Branch**: $TARGET_BRANCH
+
+            ## Conflict Resolution Instructions
+            If there are conflicts in this PR, you can resolve them locally by following these steps:
+
+            1. **Fetch the remote branch**:
+               ```bash
+               git fetch origin ${{ steps.push.outputs.BRANCH_NAME }}
+               ```
+
+            2. **Checkout the branch**:
+               ```bash
+               git checkout ${{ steps.push.outputs.BRANCH_NAME }}
+               ```
+
+            3. **Merge the upstream branch manually**:
+               ```bash
+               git fetch https://github.com/flathub/$UPSTREAM_REPO $TARGET_BRANCH
+               git merge FETCH_HEAD
+               ```
+
+            4. **Resolve any conflicts**:
+               Open each conflicted file and manually resolve the conflicts. Then mark each file as resolved:
+               ```bash
+               git add <file-with-conflicts>
+               ```
+
+            5. **Complete the merge**:
+               ```bash
+               git commit
+               ```
+
+            6. **Push the resolved branch**:
+               ```bash
+               git push origin ${{ steps.push.outputs.BRANCH_NAME }}
+               ```
+          base: $TARGET_BRANCH
+          labels: ["sync", "upstream"]
