A patch release fixing the action's Marketplace metadata.
v1.0.0 could not be listed on the GitHub Actions Marketplace: its description was 127 characters and the
Marketplace allows fewer than 125. Nothing about the action's behaviour changes — action.yml's logic, its inputs and
its outputs are identical to v1.0.0.
Bug Fixes
-
The action's description is 108 characters instead of 127:
Synchronize branches and tags of forked repositories in a GitHub namespace with their upstream repositories.
It says the same thing — "a GitHub namespace" is a GitHub organisation or user account, and the parameter
documentation still spells that out where there is room for it.
Changes
- The pipeline validates the Marketplace metadata on every push — the metadata file at the repository root, a name, a
description below the limit, a branding icon and one of the eight accepted branding colours, and a public
repository. The three release jobs depend on it, so a release can no longer be tagged with metadata the Marketplace
would reject.
Documentation
- The README describes the check and states that listing an action on the Marketplace is a checkbox on its release,
with no API behind it.
