## Sync-back automation
When Dependabot updates action versions in the generated workflow files (`.github/workflows/__*.yml`),
the sync-back automation ensures those changes are properly reflected in the source templates.
The sync-back script automatically detects all actions used in generated workflows and preserves
version comments (e.g., `# v1.2.3`) when syncing versions between files.
### Running sync-back manually
To sync action versions from generated workflows back to source templates:
```bash
# Dry run to see what would be changed
python3 pr-checks/sync_back.py --dry-run --verbose
# Actually apply the changes
python3 pr-checks/sync_back.py
```
The sync-back script automatically updates:
- Hardcoded action versions in `pr-checks/sync.py`
- Action version references in template files in `pr-checks/checks/`
Regular workflow files are updated directly by Dependabot and don't need sync-back.
This ensures that the `verify-pr-checks.sh` test always passes after Dependabot PRs.
### Testing
The sync-back script includes comprehensive tests that can be run with:
```bash
python3 pr-checks/test_sync_back.py -v
```
