A GitHub Action that automatically creates or updates a pull request for changes made to the repository during a workflow run. It commits workspace changes to a new branch and opens a PR against the checked-out base branch.
Use cases
- automatically open a pull request with generated file changes in CI
- create a PR from a GitHub Actions workflow after running a formatter or code generator
- keep a dependency update branch up to date via scheduled workflows
- commit and PR documentation or data updates produced during a build
- update an existing pull request branch with new workflow changes
When to choose
- you need a PR created automatically from changes made in a GitHub Actions workflow
- you want scheduled or event-driven automation that proposes changes via pull requests
- you need to update an existing automation PR instead of creating duplicates
When to avoid
- you are not using GitHub Actions as your CI platform
- you need to create pull requests outside of a workflow workspace context
- your repository disallows GitHub Actions from creating pull requests and you cannot change permissions
