Pull request overview
Updates the .github/zizmor.yml documentation comment to accurately describe what zizmor’s ref-pin policy actually enforces (ref-pinned vs SHA-pinned), while keeping the underlying unpinned-uses policy behavior unchanged.
Changes:
- Rewords the first-party
uses:policy comment to clarify that zizmor enforces “ref vs SHA” pinning, not which specific ref (e.g.,@main). - Preserves the existing policy mapping (
"netresearch/*": ref-pin,"*": hash-pin) with no functional changes.

netresearch/.github#339 makes the zizmor reusable fetch the organisation policy at run time when a repo has no .github/zizmor.yml of its own, and removes the file from the templates. Keeping a copy here would silently win over the shared policy the next time it really changes, which is how this file came to differ across the fleet in the first place. The scan itself is unchanged: the same policy is applied, from one place. Signed-off-by: Sebastian Mendel <github@sebastianmendel.de>

.github/zizmor.yml. netresearch/.github#339 makes the zizmor reusable fetch the organisation policy at run time when a repo has no file of its own, and drops it from all five templates, so this copy no longer has a job.It is not harmless to leave behind. A local file takes precedence over the fetched one, so this repository would keep running an old policy the next time the shared one actually changes — which is exactly how a two-line policy ended up needing a pull request in 54 repositories to reword a comment.
The scan result does not change: the same policy is applied, from one place instead of 54. A repository that genuinely needs a different policy opts out by keeping its own
.github/zizmor.yml; this one was byte-identical to the template, which was verified before deleting.This pull request previously carried the comment rewording from #336. That became pointless once the file itself moved, so the branch was rewritten to delete it instead.
