Replaces dawidd6/action-send-mail with hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.1.0 (tag commit 1b3b752d39a4fe4c0f28f10905e4608789d3e050), per the 2026-09-02 ruling (standards spec §5.5/§9, PR hyperpolymath/standards#725). The whole file is the rsr-template-repo canonical, so besides the uses: line it also: limits the trigger to branch pushes (tag/deletion payloads mislabel Branch:), drops actions: read (unused), and adds timeout-minutes: 5. Dormant gating on vars.PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED == 'true' is unchanged. Line 1 SPDX header kept as it was.

Engine: .git-private-farm/scripts/smtp-notify-sweep.sh. Verification for this repo: regime=no-lock changed=.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml, sig=G 76141b7 base=main
(pristine/post = gh actions-lock --no-fix validity before/after; repair = the lock was already invalid before this change and is valid after it.)

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Push email notifications now run only for branch pushes.
    • Notification jobs have a five-minute time limit.
    • Email delivery reliability has been improved by updating the notification service.

Walkthrough

The push-email notification workflow now runs for branch pushes only, uses hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action at a pinned commit, and stops after five minutes.

Changes

Push email notification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow trigger and notification execution
.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml
The workflow documents its re-landing, limits the push trigger to branches, uses the pinned SMTP notification action, and adds a five-minute job timeout. SMTP inputs remain unchanged.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 76141

The workflow now uses the replacement SMTP action, but deleted-branch events may still send unintended notifications and push bursts may run overlapping email jobs. These bounded correctness and operational risks should be addressed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Poem

A rabbit checks the branch at dawn
The email hops, then travels on
A five-minute clock keeps time
Pinned SMTP makes the signal chime
Tags stay quiet in the burrow
Fresh push notices follow tomorrow

GitHub Actions push event branch filters deleted branch event github.event.deleted head_commit null

💡 Result:

When a branch is deleted on GitHub, the push event is still triggered [1][2]. In this specific scenario, the payload includes "deleted": true and "head_commit": null [2], because the reference no longer points to a valid commit. Additionally, the GITHUB_REF environment variable typically reverts to the repository's default branch [3][4]. To prevent workflows from running unintentionally during a branch deletion, you can use a conditional filter in your job configuration [5][6][7]. Recommended solutions: 1. Skip the workflow on deletion: You can add an if condition to your job to ignore push events where github.event.deleted is true [5][6][7]: jobs: my-job: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Run on push only run: echo "This runs only on actual commits." 2. Handling deletions explicitly: If you need to perform cleanup tasks (such as removing deployments) when a branch is deleted, you should use the delete event trigger instead of the push event [5][4]. The delete event payload provides the name of the deleted branch via github.event.ref [4][8]. on: push: delete: jobs: cleanup: if: github.event_name == 'delete' && github.event.ref_type == 'branch' runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Clean up deleted branch run: echo "Branch ${{ github.event.ref }} was deleted." By distinguishing between the push and delete events, you can avoid errors caused by the head_commit being null and ensure your automation logic executes only on the appropriate event types [5][9].

Citations:


Exclude deleted branch events.

The push trigger can run for branch deletions. The payload sets github.event.deleted to true and github.event.head_commit to null, while the job still runs when PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED is true. Add github.event.deleted != true to the job condition.

GitHub Actions workflow concurrency groups cancel-in-progress official documentation

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, the concurrency keyword is used to ensure that only a single job or workflow run within a specific concurrency group executes at a time [1][2]. When multiple runs are triggered for the same group, you can control how they are handled using the cancel-in-progress option [1][3]. Key details regarding concurrency groups and cancel-in-progress: - Concurrency Groups: A concurrency group is defined by a name (a hard-coded string or a dynamic expression) [1][3][2]. Any jobs or workflows that share the same group name are subject to the concurrency rules defined for that group [1][3]. - cancel-in-progress: This setting determines whether currently running jobs or workflows in the same concurrency group should be canceled when a new run is triggered [1][4]. - When set to true, GitHub Actions will cancel any currently running or pending jobs/workflows in that concurrency group before starting the new one [1][3]. - When set to false (the default behavior for pending runs), new runs will wait in a pending state until the current run completes; however, by default, any existing pending jobs/workflows in the same group are canceled when a new run is queued [1][3]. - Implementation: You can define concurrency at the workflow level (top-level of the YAML) or at the individual job level [2][4]. Example usage: concurrency: group: ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }} cancel-in-progress: true In this example, the concurrency group is dynamically named using the workflow name and the branch/tag reference, and any in-progress runs for that specific combination will be canceled when a new one begins [1][3].

Citations:


Add an explicit concurrency policy.

timeout-minutes: 5 limits each run, not concurrent runs. This workflow can start parallel SMTP jobs during a push burst. Add jobs.notify.concurrency. Queue runs when every push requires an email. Cancel stale runs only when dropped notifications are acceptable.
