step "Enable Pull Request Automerge" has been skipping about enable-pull-request-automerge HOT 4 CLOSED

Hi @olga-density

Apologies for the slow response.

It's skipping because the output pull-request-operation is evaluating to null. It will be null when no action was taken by the create-pull-request action. The possible actions are created, updated and closed. For example, if the action ran and there were no changes to raise in a PR then no PR is created and the result of pull-request-operation is null. This is the correct behaviour. You only want to set automerge on newly created PRs.

Hey @peter-evans, thank you for getting back to me.
Correct, I see that auto-merge skipped and when I looked at PR it required approval.
I was trying to add the auto-approval

      # - name: Auto approve
      #   if: steps.cpr.outputs.pull-request-operation == 'created'
      #   run: gh pr review --approve "${{ steps.cpr.outputs.pull-request-number }}"
      #   env:
      #     GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}

but hot this error

Run gh pr review --approve "31"
  gh pr review --approve "31"
  shell: /usr/bin/bash -e {0}
  env:
    PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER: [3](https://github.com/DensityCo/helm-charts/actions/runs/6087166314/job/16515139564#step:8:3)1
    GH_TOKEN: ***
failed to run git: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the parent directories): .git

if you have any ideas/advice, I would very much appreciate so.

The error from the GitHub CLI is telling you that it can't find a git repository locally. Have you checked out the repository?

Hey Peter!

yes, I did.
Sorry, for late response. I was busy with another project. I'll try to troubleshoot this issue again.
Thank you for your response!
