📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe push email workflow now runs for branch pushes only. Each run has an independent concurrency group. The workflow uses read-only contents permission, a five-minute timeout, and a SHA-256-pinned SMTP notification action. ChangesPush email workflow
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk:🟡 Moderate · up to The workflow can send misleading emails for branch deletions and currently trusts a movable action tag. Both issues should be corrected before merge; the SMTP port must also be confirmed against the action's TLS mode. Poem

- Line 16: Update the notification job’s condition in the workflow to require
github.event.deleted to be false, while preserving the existing branch matching
and other conditions so branch-deletion push events are skipped.

hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action so secrets.SMTP_PORT uses the server’s
implicit-TLS port, normally 465, while retaining secure: true; do not use
STARTTLS port 587 with this setting.

GitHub Actions push event branch filters deleted branch event github.event.deleted head_commit null
💡 Result:
When a branch is deleted in a GitHub repository, it triggers a push event in GitHub Actions [1]. In this event, the head_commit property in the webhook payload is null because there is no new commit associated with the deletion [2]. To prevent workflows from running when a branch is deleted, you can add a conditional check to your jobs using the if expression [1]. Because head_commit is null during a deletion, checking for it can effectively filter out these events [1]. Example of filtering out deleted branches in a workflow: jobs: build: if: ${{ github.event.head_commit!= null }} runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - run: echo "This job will not run if the branch was deleted." Alternatively, you can specifically check the deleted property in the event payload, which is set to true when a branch is deleted [1][2]: jobs: build: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - run: echo "This job will not run if the branch was deleted." If you are using branch filters (e.g., on: push: branches: [main]), the push event triggered by a deletion may still match your filter if the repository's default branch or other branches match your pattern, as the event payload is processed by the workflow engine regardless of the head_commit value [3][4]. Applying the if condition within your jobs is the recommended approach to explicitly handle or ignore these events [1].

Exclude branch deletions from the notification job.
branches: ['**'] can match branch-deletion push events. These events set github.event.deleted to true and can set github.event.head_commit to null. The job can therefore send an email without commit details. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

Pin the action by commit SHA.
v0.2.0 currently resolves to the approved commit, but the tag can move. .github/workflows/actions.lock does not control GitHub Actions ref resolution. Use the full commit SHA and retain v0.2.0 as a comment.

hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.2.0 action.yml secure SMTP_PORT STARTTLS
💡 Result:
There is no public GitHub Action named "hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action". Research into the "hyperpolymath" organization's repositories shows they use the third-party "dawidd6/action-send-mail" action for SMTP notifications [1][2][3]. In the context of standard SMTP GitHub Actions (such as "dawidd6/action-send-mail" or similar): 1. SMTP_PORT: This variable is used to specify the port for your SMTP server [1][4]. Common ports include 587 for STARTTLS and 465 for implicit TLS [5][6][4]. 2. STARTTLS: This is typically handled by setting the appropriate connection security parameters [5][6]. Many actions use a boolean "secure" parameter or a specific configuration field to enable TLS/STARTTLS [7][8][9][4]. For example, if "secure" is set to "true" in some actions, it may default to TLS; you should verify the documentation of the specific action you are using to ensure it explicitly supports or requires STARTTLS for port 587 [5][6][4]. 3. Secure Configuration: To ensure a secure connection, verify your SMTP provider's requirements [7]. Using port 465 often implies implicit TLS (SSL/TLS), while port 587 is the standard for STARTTLS upgrades [5][6][4]. Always ensure your "SMTP_HOST", "SMTP_PORT", "SMTP_USER", and "SMTP_PASS" are stored as GitHub Secrets for security [1][7][4].

Use an implicit-TLS port with secure: true.
secrets.SMTP_PORT is passed to server_port. If it is 587, the action can fail because secure: true uses implicit TLS and does not implement STARTTLS. Set the secret to the SMTP server's implicit-TLS port, normally 465.
