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].

Citations:

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.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at 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.

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.
group: push-email-${{ github.run_id }}

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.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at 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.

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.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at 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.
