GitHub Actions push event branch deletion branches filter github.event.deleted head_commit null documentation

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, a branch deletion triggers a push event [1][2]. When this occurs, the push event payload includes deleted: true [2][3], and the head_commit field is set to null [3]. Because the branch no longer exists at the time the workflow runs, default environment variables like GITHUB_SHA or GITHUB_REF may point to the repository's default branch instead of the branch that was deleted [4][5][6][7]. To handle this behavior, common practices include: 1. Filtering out deletions: If you want your workflow to ignore branch deletions, you can use a conditional check in your job or step [8][9][10]: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} 2. Detecting branch deletion: If you need to perform cleanup tasks (such as removing temporary deployments) specifically when a branch is deleted, you can verify the deletion status [1][11]: if: ${{ github.event.deleted }} 3. Accessing the deleted branch name: If you specifically need to respond to a branch deletion, using the delete event is often more reliable than the push event [6][2]. Unlike the push event, the delete event provides the deleted reference name directly in the context [6][7]: on: delete jobs: cleanup: if: github.event.ref_type == 'branch' runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - run: echo "Branch deleted: ${{ github.event.ref }}" Note that github.event.ref in a delete event contains the name of the branch directly (e.g., my-feature-branch), whereas in other contexts, branch references often include the refs/heads/ prefix [7].

Citations:

Exclude deleted branch pushes before sending mail.

If github.event.deleted is true, github.event.head_commit is null. The enabled job can therefore send a notification without a head-commit message. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at line 15, Update the job condition
in the push notification workflow to require !github.event.deleted, while
preserving the existing conditions, so deleted branch pushes do not run without
github.event.head_commit.

concurrency:
# Deliberately per-RUN, so no run is ever queued behind another and none is
# ever cancelled. Do NOT "tidy" this into a shared group such as
# ${{ github.workflow }}-${{ github.ref }}. GitHub's workflow-syntax docs:
# "By default, any existing pending job or workflow in the same concurrency
# group will be canceled and the new queued job or workflow will take its
# place." That happens regardless of cancel-in-progress, which governs only
# the RUNNING job. On this workflow it silently loses a notification email,
# with no error anywhere. Every run here reports a DISTINCT commit, so there
# is no redundant work for a concurrency limit to remove.
# The docs also offer `queue: max` (up to 100 pending); not used, because 100
# is still a cap whereas a per-run group needs none.
# Verified with zizmor 1.30.0: deleting this block raises concurrency-limits;
# this form silences it exactly as a shared group would.

Confirm SMTP endpoint compatibility before merging.

The workflow passes external SMTP_HOST and SMTP_PORT values to hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action@ede1191ef6ff3ac02c4f4d9efdf837ee517e11d7 with secure: true. The action requires implicit TLS and AUTH PLAIN. If the endpoint requires STARTTLS or another authentication mechanism, this job can fail.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at line 42, Validate that the SMTP
endpoint configured by SMTP_HOST and SMTP_PORT supports implicit TLS and AUTH
PLAIN for the smtp-notify action invoked with secure: true; update the workflow
configuration or action settings only if needed to match the endpoint’s
supported protocol and authentication mechanism.
