Summary
mainand can also be dispatched manuallymainand queue GitHub's update-branch API for eligible repository-hosted head branchesWhy
Open PR branches fall behind whenever changes land on
main. GitHub's update-branch API safely merges the latest base into eligible PR head branches, but its generated merge commits do not contain a DCO trailer. Without the narrow DCO exemption, automatic branch updates would make otherwise valid PRs fail the repository's custom DCO check.Scope and limitation
The repository
GITHUB_TOKENcannot write head branches stored in contributor forks, so those PRs are explicitly skipped with a workflow notice. At implementation time, 2 of 39 open PRs used repository-hosted branches; the other 37 used forks. No personal token or repository secret is introduced.Validation
