Note
Copilot was unable to run its full agentic suite in this review.
Improves the package update GitHub Actions workflow by detecting when there are no working-tree changes and skipping the commit/PR creation path in that case.
Changes:
- Add a PowerShell-based “changed files” check using
git status --porcelain - Exit early and set
has-changes=falsewhen no changes are detected - Only create the update branch / stage files when changes are present
