Docs-only pull requests currently run the full Go matrix — lint, vuln, coverage, and the six-leg
testsmatrix — even though no Go changed. This skips that work without reintroducing the "skipped required check blocks the merge" trap.A new
changesjob detects whether anything other than docs (*.md,docs/**,LICENSE,NOTICE) changed, defaulting to "code changed" if the diff can't be determined.lint,tests,vuln,coverage, andbenchnow run only when code changed. A new always-runninggatejob aggregates the required jobs — it fails if any failed or was cancelled and treats a skipped job as a pass — so it stays green on docs-only PRs (benchis advisory and excluded from the gate).Follow-up after merge (repo setting, not in this PR): branch protection on
mainis switched to require only the singlegatecontext instead of the nine individual checks. This PR itself touches.github/, so the full matrix runs and passes here under the current rules.
