Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/issues/6586

Originally assigned to: @MatissJanis, @Copilot on GitHub.

Issue Description

The bot is currently requesting generating release notes for documentation-only pull requests. According to project guidelines, docs-only PRs should not require auto-generate release notes.

Context

This issue was identified in PR #6585 (https://github.com/actualbudget/actual/pull/6585), which only modifies documentation files.

Expected Behavior

The bot should skip the release notes requirement for PRs that only modify documentation files.

Yeah this won't be simple.. the investment vs reward ratio here makes me think it's just not worth doing this. So closing.

Would cancelling the job be sufficient? i.e.

      - name: Check if PR is docs-only
        id: check-docs-only
        ...logic here

      - name: Cancel if requirements not met
        if: steps.check-base-branch.outputs.targets_master == 'false' || steps.check-docs-only.outputs.is_docs_only == 'true'
        run: |
          gh run cancel ${{ github.run_id }}
          gh run watch ${{ github.run_id }}
        env:
          GH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
