GitHub Actions concurrency workflow runs default behaviour jobs run concurrently official documentation

💡 Result:

The default behavior of GitHub Actions is to allow multiple jobs within the same workflow, multiple workflow runs within the same repository, and multiple workflow runs across a repository owner's account to run concurrently [1][2]. By default, there are no restrictions on concurrent execution, meaning multiple instances of the same workflow or job can execute simultaneously [1][2]. To restrict this behavior, you must explicitly use the concurrency keyword in your workflow configuration [1][3]. When you define a concurrency key with a specified group name, GitHub Actions ensures that only a single job or workflow run using that concurrency group executes at any given time [4][3][5]. When concurrency is restricted via the concurrency keyword, the default behavior for handling queued runs within that group is as follows: - When a new job or workflow is queued and another is already in progress within the same group, the new run is marked as pending [4][3]. - By default, if another pending run already exists in the group, it is canceled and replaced by the newly queued run [4][3][5]. - You can optionally configure the behavior to queue multiple runs instead of canceling them by setting cancel-in-progress: false (to allow queuing) or by configuring the queue limits, such as using max (which allows up to 100 runs to be queued before additional runs are canceled) [4][3].

Citations:

Add an explicit delivery policy for push bursts.

This workflow starts one SMTP job for each enabled branch push. GitHub Actions permits these runs to execute concurrently unless a concurrency policy limits them. A push burst can therefore send notifications out of order or exceed SMTP service limits. timeout-minutes limits each run duration; it does not limit concurrency.

Add a queue or rate-limit policy that retains every required notification. Do not use cancel-in-progress: true when every push must produce an email.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at line 15, Add a concurrency policy
to the push notification workflow so branch-push runs are queued and processed
without cancellation, preserving every required email during bursts. Configure
the workflow’s concurrency settings near the existing branch trigger, and
explicitly keep cancel-in-progress disabled.

GitHub Actions push webhook payload deleted branch deletion github.event.deleted

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, you should use the delete event to handle branch deletions, rather than relying on the push event [1][2]. Key technical details regarding this process: 1. Workflow Configuration: To trigger a workflow on branch deletion, you must explicitly add the delete event to your workflow file [1][2]. Crucially, this workflow file must exist on the repository's default branch for the event to trigger [2][3]. 2. Accessing Deleted Branch Name: When the delete event triggers a workflow, the standard GITHUB_REF environment variable will point to the default branch, not the branch that was deleted [1]. To identify the deleted branch, you must use the github.event.ref property from the workflow context [4][1]. 3. Filtering Events: Because the delete event triggers for both branch and tag deletions, you should filter for branches using the github.event.ref_type property within your job's if condition [1]: jobs: cleanup: runs-on: ubuntu-latest if: github.event.ref_type == 'branch' steps: - name: Clean up run: echo "The deleted branch was ${{ github.event.ref }}" Regarding the push event, while the underlying GitHub webhook for push technically includes information about branch deletions in its payload (where deleted is true) [5][6], the GitHub Actions push trigger is generally not used for handling deletions. If you attempt to use it, standard branch filtering in your workflow will often prevent it from running because the target reference no longer exists or the environment defaults to the repository's default branch [7][8]. Use the dedicated delete event for reliable results [1].

site:docs.github.com GitHub Actions push event branch deletion branches filter deleted true workflow

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, the push event includes branch deletions [1][2]. While there is no dedicated "deleted" filter in the on.push configuration syntax to directly trigger a workflow based on branch deletion, you can determine if a branch was deleted by checking the event payload within your workflow [1][3][2]. The push event payload contains a boolean field called deleted [1][2]. You can access this in your workflow using the github.event context [3]. To run a workflow job only when a branch is deleted, use an if condition: jobs: my_job: runs-on: ubuntu-latest if: ${{ github.event.deleted == true }} steps: - name: Handle branch deletion run: echo "The branch ${{ github.ref }} was deleted." The on.push filter syntax (such as branches and branches-ignore) is designed to control which branches trigger the workflow, but it does not support filtering by the deleted status of the push [4][5][6]. Consequently, the workflow will still be triggered by the push event itself, and the if condition will then determine whether the job should proceed based on the deleted status [3]. If you only want to react to branch or tag deletions and do not need to process standard push events, you may consider using the delete webhook event instead, though note that delete events function differently and are not push events [1][2]. Top results: [1][3][2]

Citations:

Skip deleted branch events explicitly.

branches: ['**'] does not filter the deleted field of a push event. Without this guard, the enabled job can send an email for a deleted branch. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

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.
