PAT Token with bypass policy

[dirien]

Hi @caarlos0,

Currently i had to deactivate the branch protection rules for the main branch, as I need to push the next version of the plugin to the main branch. I use the gh-action-bump-version plugin to update the package.json

Logs from the action:

✖  fatal     remote: error: GH006: Protected branch update failed for refs/heads/main.        
remote: error:  Changes must be made through a pull request.        
To https://github.com/goreleaser/goreleaser-azure-devops-extension.git
 ! [remote rejected] main -> main (protected branch hook declined)
error: failed to push some refs to 'https://github.com/***/***-azure-devops-extension.git'

git exited with code 1
✖  fatal     Failed to bump version

Question:

Can you create a new PAT with bypass policy and save it to the secret with the name: ACTION_GITHUB_TOKEN. I will then change the pipeline steps to use this PAT token.

Thanks!

Hey! Since you have access to this repo, I imagine you can use your own PAT if you want, no?

I can of course still create one with my account, but if you prefer using your that's awesome too

@caarlos0 I tried but I could not create a token for this Repo. I saw only my own repos.
