Uh oh!
There was an error while loading. Please reload this page.
Fork PRs were failing the Chango / Create chango Fragment job because the action attempted to push to contributor forks, which is not permitted with repository credentials. This change gates auto-push to same-repo branches and documents the manual fragment command for fork contributors.
-
Workflow behavior
- Updated
.github/workflows/chango.yml to disable commit-and-push when the PR head repo differs from the base repo.
- Keeps automatic chango fragment commits for in-repo branches while preventing 403 push failures on forks.
-
Contributor guidance
- Updated
.github/CONTRIBUTING.rst with explicit fork-PR guidance and the command to create a chango fragment manually.
commit-and-push: ${{ steps.check_title.outputs.COMMIT_AND_PUSH == 'true' && github.event.pull_request.head.repo.full_name == github.repository }}uv run chango new --slug pr-1234-fix-telegram-api-error
Sorry, something went wrong.

Don't pass commit-and-push=true when the PR is from a fork.
The action has no write access to the fork's branch so the push
always fails with 403, which then causes the job to fail.
For fork PRs the fragment must be added manually.
