CI Updater

Run the CI template updater compatibility workflow.

Usage

jobs:
  ci-update:
    uses: athackst/ci/.github/workflows/ci_updater.yml@main
    secrets:
      token: $

Name	Description	Default
`create-pr`	(optional) Create or update a PR with template changes.	`true`
`automerge`	(optional) Deprecated. Retained for compatibility; updater PRs are labeled automatically.	`false`
`pr-branch`	(optional) Branch name used for template updates.	`ci/update-ci-template`
`checkout-ref`	(optional) Git ref to check out before applying template updates.	`""`

Name	Description	Required
`token`	(optional) Token used for checkout, push, PR operations, failure issue maintenance, and label setup.	No

Name	Description
`changed`	Whether template changes were produced by Copier.
`changed-files`	Newline-delimited list of Copier-managed files changed by the update.
`branch`	Branch name used for the update, whether a PR was created or changes were pushed directly.
`pr-url`	URL for the updater PR, if one was created or updated.

Requires contents: write, pull-requests: write, issues: write, and actions: write.
actions: write is needed in this environment when template updates modify .github/workflows/*.

Wraps copier_update.yml with CI-template defaults for existing consumers.
Uses .copier-answers.ci.yml as the Copier answers file.
Only changes under .github/ and .copier-answers.ci.yml count toward the changed output, so other files do not open an update PR.
Updater PRs use the title chore: update CI template, commit message chore: apply CI template update, and labels automerge and skip-changelog.
Skips the Copier update entirely when .copier-answers.ci.yml is missing.
Fails before PR creation or branch push when Copier leaves merge conflicts in managed files.
Writes a final workflow summary for both the PR and direct-push paths.

Disable PR creation and just validate the update path:

jobs:
  ci-update:
    uses: athackst/ci/.github/workflows/ci_updater.yml@main
    with:
      create-pr: false
    secrets:
      token: $
