Action to update copier-templated repo from upstream

If you're using a GitHub organization, navigate to your organization's action settings (like https://github.com/organizations/your-org-name-here/settings/actions) and toggle Read and write permissions under Workflow Permissions.

Create a personal access token and store it in an actions secret. In the below example, we've named it WORKFLOW_SECRET.

Now you can create a workflow like .github/workflow/copier.yml:

name: Copier Updates on: workflow_dispatch: schedule: - cron: "0 5 * * 0" jobs: update: permissions: contents: write pull-requests: write runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - uses: actions-ext/copier-update@main with: token: ${{ secrets.WORKFLOW_TOKEN }}
