Pull Request Overview

This PR adds an auto-approval step before merging pull requests that update the develop branch to match main, attempting to satisfy potential branch protection requirements.

Key Changes:

• Added gh pr review --approve command to automatically approve the PR before merging
• Modified the merge command to include the --auto flag, changing from immediate merge to enabling auto-merge

This approval step will fail. The default GITHUB_TOKEN cannot be used to approve pull requests that were created by the same token, as this is a GitHub Actions security restriction. You'll need to use a different authentication method, such as a GitHub App token or a personal access token (PAT) with appropriate permissions.

Consider using a GitHub App or storing a PAT in secrets and using it for the approval step:

gh pr review "${{ steps.create_pr.outputs.URL }}" --approve --body "Auto-approved by CI for merging develop update."
env:
  GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.APPROVER_TOKEN }}

The --auto flag changes the merge behavior from immediately merging the PR to enabling auto-merge, which requires branch protection rules with required status checks or approvals. If branch protection is not configured with auto-merge enabled, this command will fail.

If you intend to merge immediately (as the original code did), remove the --auto flag. If you want to enable auto-merge and wait for conditions to be met, ensure your repository has the appropriate branch protection rules configured for the develop branch.

For immediate merge (original behavior):

gh pr merge "${{ steps.create_pr.outputs.URL }}" -t "chore(ci): Auto update develop to match main [skip ci]" -b "This was done automatically by the CI pipeline" --merge

Suggested change

	gh pr merge "${{ steps.create_pr.outputs.URL }}" -t "chore(ci): Auto update develop to match main [skip ci]" -b "This was done automatically by the CI pipeline" --merge --auto
	gh pr merge "${{ steps.create_pr.outputs.URL }}" -t "chore(ci): Auto update develop to match main [skip ci]" -b "This was done automatically by the CI pipeline" --merge
