Action to add a commit to a PR #24945
-
|
Hi, I’m currently trying to achieve the following: A user creates a PR, that triggers my action. Within this action, changes are made using a custom script. So far so good, since it works as expected until this point. Now, I want to create a commit and push it into this PR. What I’ve found is this action: Create or Update Pull Request · Actions · GitHub Marketplace · GitHub However, I’m either too stupid to use it right, or it doesn’t work as I’ve expected, because it creates a new PR instead of updating the original one. Are there alternatives to this action, or is there maybe a way to achieve this without an external action? |

Thanks ! btw if someone encounters this error: "failed to run git: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git" it means that the command "gh checkout pr" was run in a non git repository(doesn't have the .git file). |

Also don't forget to "git add and git commit" in your script before pushing ^^' |
