📝 SummarySummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughThe push email workflow now targets branch pushes only, assigns each run its own concurrency group, sets a five-minute job timeout, and replaces the mail action with a pinned SMTP notification action. ChangesPush email notification workflow
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Push-email notifications may fail against the configured SMTP provider or send misleading emails when branches are deleted. Confirm SMTP compatibility and exclude deletion events before merging. Poem

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml:
- Line 30: Update the workflow concurrency group from the unique github.run_id
value to a stable push-email group so push events are serialized and provide
external back-pressure against SMTP or runner limits; preserve the existing
workflow behavior otherwise.
- Line 42: Verify the SMTP configuration used by the notification step and
ensure the selected host and port support implicit TLS rather than STARTTLS,
with SMTP authentication using AUTH PLAIN. Update the configuration or provider
selection associated with smtp-notify-action so its contract matches these
requirements before enabling notifications.
- Line 15: Update the workflow job condition to require github.event.deleted to
be false, while preserving the existing conditions, so deleted-branch push
events do not build or send notifications with a null head_commit.

GitHub Actions push event branch deletion github.event.deleted head_commit null branches filter
💡 Result:
In GitHub Actions, a branch deletion triggers the push event [1][2][3]. When this occurs, the push payload includes deleted: true, and the head_commit object is null [2][4]. Additionally, the after SHA is set to all zeros (0000000000000000000000000000000000000000) [4][5]. Because branch deletions are technically pushes, they can trigger workflows that are configured with branch filters (e.g., on: push: branches: ['']) [1][3]. To prevent your workflow from running on these events, you must explicitly filter them out in the jobs using an if condition [5][6][7]. Recommended approach: Add an if condition to your job to check the github.event.deleted context [5][6][8]: jobs: my_job: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Your step run: echo "This will not run on branch deletion." This condition ensures that the job is skipped when the event is a branch deletion [6][7]. Note that standard branch filters in the on configuration do not distinguish between a regular push and a deletion, so this job-level conditional is the most common and effective way to handle the behavior [1][3][9].

Exclude deleted branches from the trigger.
Branch deletion triggers push workflows despite branches: ['**']. Such payloads set github.event.deleted to true and head_commit to null. This workflow still runs when enabled and builds the email body from github.event.head_commit.message, so it can send a notification without commit details. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

Add external back-pressure if SMTP or runner limits require it.
push-email-${{ github.run_id }} is unique per run, so separate push events can start SMTP jobs concurrently. If push bursts can exceed provider or runner limits, add a queue or rate limiter and monitor rejected jobs.

Verify the SMTP provider contract before enabling notifications.
If the configured port uses STARTTLS, this step will fail because secure: true selects implicit TLS and the action does not implement STARTTLS. If secrets.SMTP_HOST is smtp.office365.com, authentication will fail because the action supports only AUTH PLAIN. Verify that the SMTP host supports implicit TLS on the configured port and AUTH PLAIN.
