# This Workflow is special and contains a workaround for a known limitation of GitHub CI. | |
# | |
# The problem: We don't want to run the "bootstrap" jobs on PRs which contain only changes | |
# to the docs, since these jobs take a long time to complete without providing any benefit. | |
# We therefore use path-filtering in the workflow triggers for the bootstrap jobs, namely | |
# "paths-ignore: doc/**". But the "Bootstrap post job" is a required job, therefore a PR cannot | |
# be merged unless the "Bootstrap post job" completes succesfully, which it doesn't do if we | |
# filter it out. | |
# | |
# The solution: We use a second job with the same name which always returns the exit code 0. | |
# The logic implemented for "required" workflows accepts if 1) at least one job with that name | |
# runs through, AND 2) If multiple jobs of that name exist, then all jobs of that name have to | |
# finish successfully. | |
