Replaces dawidd6/action-send-mail with hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action v0.1.0 (tag commit 1b3b752d39a4fe4c0f28f10905e4608789d3e050), per the 2026-09-02 ruling (standards spec §5.5/§9, PR hyperpolymath/standards#725). The whole file is the rsr-template-repo canonical, so besides the uses: line it also: limits the trigger to branch pushes (tag/deletion payloads mislabel Branch:), drops actions: read (unused), and adds timeout-minutes: 5. 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 833bd38 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.)

📝 Summary

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Bug Fixes

    • Push email notifications now trigger only for branch updates, preventing notifications for tag changes and branch or tag deletions.
    • Notification jobs now stop after five minutes if they do not complete.
  • Security

    • Workflow access has been reduced to the permissions required for reading repository contents.

Walkthrough

The push-email workflow now runs only for branch pushes. It uses contents: read, has a five-minute job limit, and sends mail through a pinned hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action revision.

Changes

Push email notification

Layer / File(s) Summary
Workflow event and execution controls
.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml
The workflow now targets branch pushes only. It retains contents: read and adds a five-minute job timeout.
Pinned SMTP action integration
.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml
The workflow uses the pinned hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action revision. SMTP inputs, recipients, subject, and body remain unchanged. The workflow comment records the re-land and action properties.

Estimated code review effort: 1 (Trivial) | ~5 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 833bd

The workflow now uses a new SMTP notification path, but deleted-branch push events can still trigger it and send a malformed email with an empty commit message. This bounded correctness issue should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merge; other follow-ups are non-blocking.

Poem

A rabbit checks the branch at dawn
Tags stay quiet; the noise is gone
Five minutes guards the waiting mail
A pinned SMTP path sets sail
Read-only rights keep watch nearby
Hoppy builds now safely fly

Check the SMTP secrets before enabling this workflow

The workflow passes unknown values for SMTP_PORT and SMTP_HOST. secure: true requires implicit TLS, normally on port 465; incompatible secret values can prevent delivery.

GitHub Actions push event branch filter deleted branch workflow will not run official documentation

💡 Result:

Yes, the GitHub Actions push event can be triggered when a branch is deleted, and it is subject to the standard branch filters defined in your workflow [1][2]. According to official GitHub documentation, the push webhook event includes branch deletions [1]. When a branch is deleted, the workflow may trigger if the deleted branch name matches your configured branches or branches-ignore filters [3][2]. Notably, when this happens, the GITHUB_SHA and GITHUB_REF in the workflow run revert to the repository's default branch [3][2]. Because the push event triggers for deletions, users often find that workflows configured with branch filters (like those targeting specific feature branches) might inadvertently run or behave unexpectedly when those branches are deleted. To specifically handle branch deletions, GitHub recommends using the delete event rather than the push event, as it provides explicit context such as the deleted branch name in the webhook payload (via github.event.ref) [4]. If you need to prevent a workflow from running on a push event that was triggered by a deletion, you can add a conditional check in your workflow job using an expression like if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} [5].

Citations:


Exclude branch deletions explicitly.

push workflows can run when a deleted branch matches branches: ['**']. The deletion payload has head_commit: null, so this job can send an email with an empty Head msg field. Add github.event.deleted != true to the job condition.

GitHub Actions workflow concurrency one running one pending newer pending replaces older cancel-in-progress false documentation

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, the cancel-in-progress: false setting does not prevent the cancellation of queued (pending) workflow runs; it only ensures that a currently running job is allowed to complete [1][2]. By default, every concurrency group is limited to at most one running job and at most one pending job [3][1][4]. When a new workflow run enters a concurrency group that already has one job running and one job pending, the existing pending job is automatically cancelled to make room for the new, more recent pending run [3][1][4]. Key takeaways regarding this behavior: - Running Job Protection: When cancel-in-progress is false (the default), the job currently in the running slot is protected from cancellation [1][2]. - Pending Job Behavior: The pending slot acts as a single reservation for the most recent request [1]. Any newer run that arrives while a job is already waiting in the pending slot will cancel that pending job, regardless of whether cancel-in-progress is set to false [1][4]. - Scaling Queues: As of May 2026, you can enable larger queues by adding queue: max to your concurrency configuration [5]. This allows up to 100 jobs to wait in the pending queue instead of being automatically cancelled, permitting them to execute sequentially [6][5]. To avoid unintended cancellations of queued runs, you must either use queue: max for sequential execution or ensure your concurrency group keys are specific enough (e.g., including ${{ github.ref }}) to prevent unrelated runs from contending for the same group slots [7][5][4].

Define a delivery queue for notifications.

This workflow has no concurrency policy, so separate push runs can open SMTP sessions concurrently. timeout-minutes: 5 limits each job only. If every push must be delivered, use a durable queue or a concurrency queue with sufficient capacity; a standard concurrency group can replace pending runs.
