-name: "Create PR custom action"
-description: "Create a PR and a temporary branch, close duplicates"
-
-# PROCESS
-#
-# 1. Setup git client using Powertools for AWS Lambda bot username
-# 2. Pushes staged files to a temporary branch
-# 3. Creates a PR from temporary branch against a target branch (typically trunk: develop, main, etc.)
-# 4. Searches for duplicate PRs with the same title
-# 5. If duplicates are found, link to the most recent one, close and delete their branches so we keep a single PR
-# 6. In the event of failure, we delete the now orphaned branch (if any), and propagate the failure
-
-# REQUIREMENTS
-# You need to enable "Allow GitHub Actions to create and approve pull requests" in your repository settings
-# You need to have "skip-changelog" label in your repository to skip changelog generation.
-
-# USAGE
-#
-# - name: Create PR
-#   id: create-pr
-#   uses: ./.github/actions/create-pr
-#   with:
-#     files: "CHANGELOG.md"
-#     temp_branch_prefix: "ci-changelog"
-#     pull_request_title: "chore(ci): changelog rebuild"
-#     github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
-# - name: Step to demonstrate how to access outputs (no need for this)
-#   run: |
-#     echo "PR number: ${PR_ID}"
-#     echo "Branch: ${BRANCH}"
-#   env:
-#     PR_ID: ${{ steps.create-pr.outputs.pull_request_id}}
-#     BRANCH: ${{ steps.create-pr.outputs.temp_branch}}
