Analysis
I analyzed all workflow files in
.github/workflows/
to identify which ones perform git push operations and checked their current permissions:git push
operations but only hadcontents: read
--no-push
flag, doesn't actually push to gitcontents: write
with proper commentcontents: write
with proper commentChanges Made
Updated
.github/workflows/create-or-update-release-pr.yml
:contents: read
tocontents: write # required for pushing changes
This workflow performs multiple git push operations:
git push origin main --force
in the workflow stepsgit push --set-upstream $RELEASE_PR_REMOTE --force release/next-version
through the npm script_github:update_release_branch
The fix is minimal - only one line changed in one file, with the required trailing comment as specified in the issue.
Fixes #48.
