Why doesn't "Workflow B" get triggered upon successful completion of "Workflow A" when a new file is pushed to branch_b?
I have three branches in my repository:
- master (default branch)
- branch_a
- branch_b
In the branch_a branch, I've set up a workflow file that creates a file named "test2.txt" and then commits and pushes this file to the branch_b. Here's a snippet of the workflow file:
name: CD
on:
push:
branches:
- branch_a
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout code
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Create and push build branch
env:
GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
run: |
git config --global user.email "myemail"
git config --global user.name "myusername"
# Create a simple text file
echo "This is a test file." > test2.txt
# Commit and push changes to branch_b
git fetch origin branch_b
git checkout branch_b # Switch to branch_b
git add test2.txt
git commit -m "Add test file"
git push origin branch_b
Additionally, I've created another workflow file on the branch_b branch:
name: Workflow B
on:
push:
branches:
- branch_b
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- name: Checkout code
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Output
run: echo "Workflow on branch_b triggered"
However, despite successfully observing the "test2.txt" file being pushed to branch_b, the "Workflow B" doesn't seem to be triggered upon the completion of "Workflow A."
What could be the reasons for "Workflow B" not getting triggered as expected?
