WalkthroughThe push email workflow now runs only for branch pushes, keeps concurrent runs, limits the job to five minutes, and sends mail through ChangesPush email workflow
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to Push notifications now use a replacement SMTP action, but the action reference can change independently of this repository and branch deletion events may send emails with missing commit details. Pin the action to its commit SHA and skip deleted branch events before merging. Poem

- Line 43: Update the hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action reference in the workflow
to use its full commit SHA directly instead of the mutable v0.2.0 tag,
preserving the existing action configuration and comment as appropriate.
- Line 43: Update the SMTP notification step using
hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action so its transport matches the provider’s
requirements: replace it with an action that explicitly supports STARTTLS when
SMTP_PORT requires STARTTLS, or configure an implicit-TLS-compatible port and
settings when secure: true is intended. Preserve the existing notification
behavior and pinned action security.
- Line 16: Update the notification job condition in the workflow to exclude
deleted-branch push events by requiring github.event.deleted to be false, while
preserving notifications for normal pushes.

GitHub Actions push event webhook payload deleted head_commit null branches filter documentation
💡 Result:
When a branch is deleted in a GitHub repository, the resulting push event payload indicates the deletion by setting the deleted attribute to true [1][2][3]. In this scenario, the head_commit field is set to null because there is no remaining head commit on the deleted ref [1][2][3]. Key technical details regarding this behavior include: Webhook Payload: The push event payload explicitly includes a deleted boolean field [1][4]. If this is true, the event represents a branch or tag deletion, and the head_commit object will be null [1][2][3]. Branch Filtering Documentation: You can use the branches or branches-ignore filters in your workflow definition (e.g., in on: push: branches:) to control which pushes trigger your workflow [5][6][7]. However, these filters act on the ref name (the branch) and do not automatically exclude events where the ref was deleted [5][6]. Because a deletion push event still targets a branch name (the one being deleted), a workflow configured to run on that branch may still be triggered by the deletion event unless explicitly handled [2]. Handling Deletions: If you need to avoid running workflows during branch deletions, you can include a step in your workflow that checks the payload's deleted attribute: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} run: echo "This is not a branch deletion." Alternatively, if you only need to perform actions during deletions, you can use the delete webhook event, which is specifically designed for branch or tag deletions [1][3][8]. For additional details on the push event payload structure, refer to the official GitHub Webhook events and payloads documentation [3][4].

Exclude branch-deletion pushes from the notification job.
branches: ['**'] permits branch-deletion push events. These payloads have head_commit: null, so the email can contain missing commit data. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

Pin the action by commit SHA.
The tag currently resolves to the recorded commit, but GitHub Actions still consumes the mutable @v0.2.0 reference. Use the full commit SHA directly.

hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.2.0 secure STARTTLS server_port documentation
💡 Result:
There is no GitHub Action specifically named "smtp-notify-action" published by "hyperpolymath" [1][2]. The "hyperpolymath" account uses a standard dormant push-email notification workflow in its repositories [3][1][2][4][5][6][7], which relies on the widely used third-party action dawidd6/action-send-mail [3][4][5][6][7]. For the dawidd6/action-send-mail action (and similar tools like simonsfoundation/action-send-mail or caelicode/send-email), the standard configuration for STARTTLS and secure connections typically follows this pattern [8][9]: 1. secure: When set to true, this usually indicates the use of implicit TLS (often on port 465). When set to false, it enables STARTTLS (often on port 587) [8][9]. 2. server_port: This should be configured according to your SMTP provider's requirements—typically 587 for STARTTLS/SMTP submission and 465 for implicit TLS (SMTPS) [8][9]. Since "smtp-notify-action" does not exist as a standalone project by this author, you should refer to the documentation for the specific action being used in your workflow file (such as dawidd6/action-send-mail) [3][4][5][6][7]. If you are implementing a custom workflow, ensure that the server_port matches the encryption method required by your email service provider [8][9].

Verify the SMTP transport configuration before merging.
hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action@v0.2.0 treats secure: true as implicit TLS. It does not implement STARTTLS. If SMTP_PORT requires STARTTLS, the step will fail. Use an action that supports STARTTLS when the provider requires it.
