Description
Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched existing issues
Current Behavior
The initial manual creation of the PR for updating the crate version via the crate-version-update workflow works as expected. However, if another PR is merged and the automatic run of the workflow triggers to update the PR, the PR is left in a state of being updated, but not having CI trigger for it.
Expected Behavior
CI should trigger whenever the Crate Update PR is updated (commits only)
Steps To Reproduce
- Manually run the crate-version-update workflow
- Merge a different PR
- Watch as the crate-version-update PR successfully runs and updates the PR, but CI does not re-trigger

Are you going to fix this?
I will fix it
Do you need maintainer feedback?
No maintainer feedback needed
Anything else?
My initial thoughts is that it has to do with force pushing a commit that is exactly the same as the commit that already exists. I think github sees the new push and thus wipes the status checks, but then also sees the commit added is exactly the same and thus does not re-run CI.
I'm not sure this 100% makes sense as this is basically the same as a rebase&FF. Not sure. Needs further investigation.
