# PUSH_EMAIL_ENABLED=true (the single on/off switch). Addresses are pre-filled;
# sending needs the org SMTP secrets (SMTP_HOST/PORT/USER/PASS). Inherited by
# new repos from the template; placed on existing repos by the farm sweep.

# 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 deleted branch github.event.deleted head_commit null documentation

💡 Result:

When a Git branch is deleted, GitHub triggers a push event where the deleted property in the payload is set to true [1][2][3]. Because the branch no longer exists at the time of the event, there is no longer a head commit associated with that specific reference, which causes the head_commit object to be null in the push event payload [1][2][3]. Key points regarding this behavior: 1. Payload Properties: In the push webhook payload, the deleted attribute is set to true, and head_commit is null when a branch or tag is deleted [1][2][3]. 2. Alternative for Branch Deletion: If your goal is specifically to handle branch deletions (e.g., to perform cleanup tasks), it is best practice to use the delete event rather than the push event [4][5][6]. The delete event provides the ref (branch name) directly in github.event.ref [4][5]. 3. Implementation Strategy: - When using the delete event, you must filter by github.event.ref_type == 'branch' to ensure the workflow only triggers for branch deletions and not tag deletions [5][7]. - If you must use the push event, you can check github.event.deleted to identify when a deletion has occurred, but you will not have access to the specific commit metadata that existed before the deletion within that payload [1][8]. If you are writing a workflow to handle these events, use the following pattern for the delete event: on: delete: jobs: cleanup: if: github.event.ref_type == 'branch' runs-on: ubuntu-latest steps: - name: Handle branch deletion run: echo "Branch deleted: ${{ github.event.ref }}"

Exclude deleted branch pushes explicitly.

branches: ['**'] does not exclude branch-deletion events. GitHub sets github.event.deleted to true and github.event.head_commit to null for these events. The enabled job can therefore send an email with an empty Head msg. Add !github.event.deleted to the job condition.

In @.github/workflows/push-email-notify.yml at line 15, Update the job condition
in the push workflow to require github.event.deleted to be false, alongside the
existing conditions, so deleted-branch push events are skipped and only events
with a valid head commit continue to email notification.

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 endpoint matches this action before merging.

This workflow passes secure: true, so the action uses implicit TLS and AUTH PLAIN. STARTTLS is not implemented, and an endpoint that requires it or another authentication mechanism can fail. Confirm that the secret-backed endpoint uses implicit TLS, normally on port 465, and supports AUTH PLAIN.
