# PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED=true (the single on/off switch). Addresses are pre-filled;

# Re-landed after the 2026-07-20 notification-storm freeze (removed in
# 09f94c5), now on hyperpolymath/smtp-notify-action: Node-free, the SMTP
# session is Idris2-specified and machine-checked, the binary is Zig-built,
# byte-reproducible, and SHA-256-pinned inside the action itself.

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

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, when a branch is deleted, the push event is still triggered [1][2][3]. In this specific scenario, the head_commit field in the webhook payload is null, and the after SHA becomes the default branch's SHA [4][1][2]. To filter or handle these events, use the following approaches: 1. Detecting branch deletion: You can identify that a branch was deleted by checking if the deleted property in the push event payload is true [1][2]. Within a workflow, this is accessed via ${{ github.event.deleted }}. 2. Handling deletions in workflows: If you need to perform actions specifically when a branch is deleted, the recommended approach is to use the delete event rather than the push event [1][5]. The delete event provides the ref of the deleted item and ref_type (e.g., branch or tag) [1][6]. 3. Filtering/Ignoring deletions: - To ignore branch deletions in a push workflow, you can add an if conditional to your job: if: ${{!github.event.deleted }} [3] - Using branches or branches-ignore filters in the push event configuration will not reliably prevent the workflow from triggering when a branch is deleted, as the push event to the default branch (which happens during deletion) may still match those filters [4][2][7]. Therefore, explicit conditional checks are necessary [3].

Citations:

Exclude deleted branch events explicitly.

When a branch deletion sets github.event.deleted to true, github.event.head_commit is null. Add && !github.event.deleted to the job condition to prevent an incomplete notification.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at line 15, Update the job condition
in the push notification workflow to require github.event.deleted to be false,
alongside the existing head_commit check, so deleted branch events do not
produce incomplete notifications.

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.

Confirm the SMTP port configuration

The workflow passes SMTP_PORT to the pinned action with secure: true. This requires implicit TLS. Confirm that SMTP_PORT is 465 and that the server supports SMTPS. If the service uses port 587, use an action that supports STARTTLS or update the endpoint configuration.
