Format CI does not work on forked repositories

[lsh]

It seems that forked repositories do not work even when using the GitHub Secret as mentioned in the docs. This causes friction with contribution PRs as seen in #8282, #8302, and #8303.

Hmm, I didn't test this properly it seems. Did you look into how we may be able to fix it?

[lsh]

@jonmmease suggested adding pull_request to checks.yml as a possible solution.

[domoritz]

Iirc that caused us to have to builds for internal prs. But things may have changed.

@lsh are you looking into this issue?

[lsh]

I haven't had a chance to take a crack at it but I can probably take a look tomorrow

[domoritz]

Ah I remember the difficulty. We need to push to the branch after our check script and win a pull request trigger the target branch is not the right branch. So keep that in mind as you experiment.
