Note: This action does not work in `pull_request` workflows when triggered by a fork opening a pull request in the upstream repository.
This is due to restrictions put in place by GitHub Actions. See [here](https://github.com/peter-evans/create-pull-request/blob/master/docs/concepts-guidelines.md#restrictions-on-forked-repositories) for further explanation.
Note: In *public* repositories this action does not work in `pull_request` workflows when triggered by forks.
This is due to token restrictions put in place by GitHub Actions. Private repositories can be configured to [enable workflows](https://docs.github.com/en/github/administering-a-repository/disabling-or-limiting-github-actions-for-a-repository#enabling-workflows-for-private-repository-forks) from forks to run without restriction. See [here](https://github.com/peter-evans/create-pull-request/blob/master/docs/concepts-guidelines.md#restrictions-on-repository-forks) for further explanation. Alternatively, use the [`pull_request_target`](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/reference/events-that-trigger-workflows#pull_request_target) event to comment on pull requests.
