About this workflow
This workflow helps you keep an eye on your GitHub forks, notifying you when they fall behind or pull ahead of their upstream repositories. How It Works - Fetches All Your Repos: The workflow starts by grabbing a list of all repositories owned by your GitHub account. - Filters for Forks: It then intelligently filters this list to identify only your forked repositories. - Compares Branches: For each identified fork, it compares its default branch against the upstream repository's default branch to find out how many commits it's ahead or behind. - Filters for Changes: Only forks that are either ahead or behind their upstream (i.e., not perfectly in sync) are processed further. - Generates Report: A concise, well-formatted report is compiled, highlighting the status and commit differences for each relevant fork. - Sends Telegram Notification: Finally, this report is sent directly to your Telegram chat, keeping you informed in real-time. Setup Steps - Copy the template - Update triggers ( optional ) - Update the credentials Prerequisites - GitHub Credentials: You'll need to provide your GitHub personal access token for the "Get All Repositories" and "Compare Branches API Call" nodes. - Telegram Bot Setup: Configure a Telegram Bot and obtain its API token and your chat ID for the "Send Report" node. - Github Owner Username: Update the "Get All Repositories" node with the GitHub username of the repository owner whose forks you want to monitor. Explore & Fine-Tune: All detailed instructions and explanations, including how to adjust the filtering logic or output formatting, are provided in sticky notes directly within the workflow canvas.
