Thoughts on this proposal to skip specific commits using a skip ci message or PRs using a PR label for the cloudposse precommit action ?

https://github.com/cloudposse/github-action-pre-commit/issues/28

Noticed error This environment is externally managed recently in setup-python, had to downgrade from ubuntu-latest to ubuntu-22.04 to fix pre-commit and other common github actions that rely on python dependencies

i have a private repo and i want to mirror it to a public repo. I want the public repo to be devoid of the commit history. Yet I also want the public repo to be set up in a manner that allows folks outside my org to make pull requests. I know I can do something like what is found here https://github.com/pixta-dev/repository-mirroring-action/blob/main/mirror.sh but I need some help modifying it.

Hello there,

I want Github Actions to auto-approve "tofu plan" but require review for "tofu apply" and then auto-merge when all workflows are successful.
But as it is, Github Actions wants review whenever any stupid job is run within an environment with Required Approvers, so I created a "auto-approve" action and want to authenticate with my GitHub App - but it seems the approval HAS to be a Personal Token (probably because the required approvers can only be users, not apps) https://stackoverflow.com/questions/79044626/cant-approve-deployment-via-cli-rest-api-even-when-there-are-pending-deploys

Is anybody able to work around this issue ? Maybe with this new octo-sts https://www.chainguard.dev/unchained/the-end-of-github-pats-you-cant-leak-what-you-dont-have ?

I know I could fix this by creating different environments for plan and apply, but my OCD wants to make this work without it... maybe I should see a doctor instead ?
