Replaces dawidd6/action-send-mail with hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.2.0 (tag commit ede1191ef6ff3ac02c4f4d9efdf837ee517e11d7), per the 2026-09-02 ruling (standards spec §5.5/§9, PR hyperpolymath/standards#725). The whole file is replaced with the rsr-template-repo canonical, which — besides the uses: line — restricts the trigger to branch pushes (tag and deletion payloads mislabel Branch:/head_commit), sets timeout-minutes: 5, carries a deliberately per-run concurrency group, and grants only contents: read. How many of those are actual changes here depends on how far this repo's copy had drifted — read the diff, not this list. Dormant gating on vars.PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED == 'true' is unchanged. Line 1 SPDX header kept as it was.

Engine: .git-private-farm/scripts/smtp-notify-sweep.sh. Verification for this repo: regime=no-lock changed=.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml, sig=G 120c025 canon=543fc1474b54 base=main
(pristine/post = gh actions-lock --no-fix validity before/after; repair = the lock was already invalid before this change and is valid after it.)

Review Change Stack

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes
    • Improved the reliability of push email notifications by preventing concurrent workflow runs from cancelling or queuing behind one another.
    • Notifications now run only for branch pushes, excluding tag and deletion events.
    • Added a five-minute execution limit to prevent stalled notification runs.
    • Updated the email delivery service while preserving the existing SMTP settings and message details.

Walkthrough

The push-email workflow now runs only for branch pushes. Each run uses an independent concurrency group. The notification job has reduced permissions, a five-minute timeout, and a SHA-256-pinned SMTP action.

Changes

Push email notification workflow

Layer / File(s) Summary
Event filtering and run control
.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml
The workflow now excludes tag and deletion payloads. Each run uses a unique concurrency group with no cancellation.
Notification execution configuration
.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml
The job now uses a five-minute timeout, only requests contents: read, and sends mail through the pinned hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.2.0. Comments document the re-landing and PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED switch.

Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~20 minutes

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 120c0

The workflow improves notification isolation and permissions, but branch deletions can still produce emails without commit details when notifications are enabled. Add a deletion-event guard before merge.

The patch grows clear beneath the moon,
Small changes hop in place,
Tests guard the garden path,
Reviews bloom before the dawn.

GitHub Actions workflow syntax push event branches branch deletion github.event.deleted head_commit null

💡 Result:

When a Git branch is deleted, GitHub sends a push webhook event to your repository [1][2]. Because this push event indicates a modification to the repository's references, GitHub Actions workflows configured to trigger on push will execute [3][2]. In this specific scenario, the head_commit property in the github.event context is often null [1][4]. This occurs because the push event payload for a branch deletion does not point to a new commit being added, but rather to the state of the repository after the reference removal [3][1]. Consequently, if your workflow relies on github.event.head_commit (e.g., to access commit messages or changed files), it may fail or trigger errors when a branch is deleted [5][4]. To handle this behavior, you should implement conditional logic in your workflow to safely check for the presence of head_commit or detect the deletion event: 1. Use conditional expressions to bypass steps or jobs if github.event.head_commit is null or if the push is a deletion [2]. 2. Detect deletions explicitly within a push workflow using ${{ github.event.deleted }} which is a boolean in the push payload [1]. Example of handling deletions within a push-triggered job: jobs: build: runs-on: ubuntu-latest if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} steps: - name: Run only on non-deletion pushes run: echo "Processing commit ${{ github.event.head_commit.id }}" Alternatively, if your goal is to explicitly handle branch deletions, you should use the delete event type [3][6]. Note that for the delete event to trigger, the workflow file must exist on your repository's default branch [3][7]. The payload for the delete event provides the branch name via github.event.ref and the reference type via github.event.ref_type [8][2]. on: push: delete: jobs: on-delete: runs-on: ubuntu-latest if: ${{ github.event_name == 'delete' && github.event.ref_type == 'branch' }} steps: - name: Handle branch deletion run: echo "Branch deleted: ${{ github.event.ref }}"

Skip branch-deletion push events.

When github.event.deleted is true, head_commit can be null. If PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED is true, this job can send a notification without commit data. Add github.event.deleted != true to the job condition.

Confirm the SMTP transport before merge.

If secrets.SMTP_PORT targets a STARTTLS-only service, this action can fail because secure: true selects implicit TLS and STARTTLS is not implemented. Use an implicit-TLS endpoint, normally port 465, or select an action that supports STARTTLS.
