Action doesn't merge a bump from the correct target about action-dependabot-auto-merge HOT 5 CLOSED

hmmm interesting, can you share your workflow file and your auto-merge.yml (if you have one)

from action-dependabot-auto-merge.

I believe v2.0.2 has the hotfix that will address your issue.

upgrade to latest (v2.0.4) or simply use v2 in your workflow: ahmadnassri/action-dependabot-auto-merge@v2 to use the latest within the same major

Thanks @ahmadnassri
I bumped the action 2.0.4 and it's approving and merging as a charm.

It's interesting to not that it the action got upgraded to 2.0.1 and not 2.0.4 by dependabot yesterday. Not too sure when you released v2.0.4 but maybe something to look into.

they were all released in sequence on the same day

possibly, your dependabot config has a max number of PRs per day / week etc ... or it just derped 🤷‍♂️

regardless, that's a dependabot question I cannot answer

from action-dependabot-auto-merge.

I also had a run where I got messaged with "manual merging required". Upgrading the action from v1 to v2 helped.

Here is my final config:

/.github/workflows/ci.yml

      - name: 'Automerge dependency updates from Dependabot'
        uses: ahmadnassri/action-dependabot-auto-merge@v2
        # Guarantee that commit comes from Dependabot (don't blindly trust external GitHub action checks)
        if: github.event_name == 'pull_request' && github.actor == 'dependabot[bot]'
        with:
          github-token: ${{ secrets.GH_TOKEN }}

/.github/auto-merge.yml

- match:
    dependency_type: all
    update_type: 'semver:major'

/.github/dependabot.yml

version: 2
updates:
  - package-ecosystem: npm
    directory: '/'
    schedule:
      interval: weekly
    pull-request-branch-name:
      separator: '-'
    target-branch: master
    commit-message:
      prefix: chore
      include: scope
    labels:
      - "type: chore \U0001F9F9"
