The purpose of this GitHub action is to auto-commit back any changes made to the branch through previous GitHub actions to a given branch.
Attention! This will force push to the named branch, so previous changes will be lost.
Use the GitHub action in the following way:
action "Filter master" {
uses = "actions/bin/filter@46ffca7632504e61db2d4cb16be1e80f333cb859"
args = "branch master"
}
action "Some action that changes files" {
uses = "..."
args = "..."
}
action "Auto-commit" {
uses = "Mudlet/commit-branch-action@master"
needs = ["Some action that changes files"]
args = "This is an auto-commit"
secrets = ["GITHUB_TOKEN"]
env = {
USERNAME = "mudlet-bot"
USEREMAIL = "[email protected]"
BRANCH_NAME = "translation-updates"
}
}
This ensures that you run your action only on the master branch. The args field is used as your commit message. To modify the branch name, commiter name, and e-mail, adapt the env values accordingly.
