Updating from v2 to v3

Breaking changes

  • The author input now defaults to the user who triggered the workflow run. This default is set via action.yml as ${{ github.actor }} <${{ github.actor }}@users.noreply.github.com>, where github.actor is the GitHub user account associated with the run. For example, peter-evans <peter-evans@users.noreply.github.com>.

    To continue to use the v2 default, set the author input as follows.

        - uses: peter-evans/create-pull-request@v3
      with:
        author: github-actions[bot] <41898282+github-actions[bot]@users.noreply.github.com>

  • The author and committer inputs are no longer cross-used if only one is supplied. Additionally, when neither input is set, the author and committer are no longer determined from an existing identity set in git config. In both cases, the inputs will fall back to their default set in action.yml.

  • Deprecated inputs project and project-column have been removed in favour of an additional action step. See Create a project card for details.

  • Deprecated output pr_number has been removed in favour of pull-request-number.

  • Input request-to-parent has been removed in favour of push-to-fork. This greatly simplifies pushing the pull request branch to a fork of the parent repository. See Push pull request branches to a fork for details.

    e.g.

        - uses: actions/checkout@v2

    # Make changes to pull request here

    - uses: peter-evans/create-pull-request@v3
      with:
        token: ${{ secrets.MACHINE_USER_PAT }}
        push-to-fork: machine-user/fork-of-repository

New features

  • The action has been converted to Typescript giving it a significant performance improvement.

  • If you run this action in a container, or on self-hosted runners, python and pip are no longer required dependencies. See Running in a container or on self-hosted runners for details.

  • Inputs labels, assignees, reviewers and team-reviewers can now be newline separated, or comma separated. e.g.

            labels: |
          chore
          dependencies
          automated

Updating from v1 to v2

Breaking changes

  • v2 now expects repositories to be checked out with actions/checkout@v2

    To use actions/checkout@v1 the following step to checkout the branch is necessary.

        - uses: actions/checkout@v1
    - name: Checkout branch
      run: git checkout "${GITHUB_REF:11}"

  • The two branch naming strategies have been swapped. Fixed-branch naming strategy is now the default. i.e. branch-suffix: none is now the default and should be removed from configuration if set.

  • author-name, author-email, committer-name, committer-email have been removed in favour of author and committer. They can both be set in the format Display Name <email@address.com>

    If neither author or committer are set the action will default to making commits as the GitHub Actions bot user.

New features

  • Unpushed commits made during the workflow before the action runs will now be considered as changes to be raised in the pull request. See Controlling commits for details.
  • New commits made to the pull request base will now be taken into account when pull requests are updated.
  • If an updated pull request no longer differs from its base it will automatically be closed and the pull request branch deleted.
