Workflows got cancelled non-deterministically

[qinsoon]

I have setup this app for my repos. It generally works when I tested it.

However, after running it for 1 week or so, I found that my workflows sometimes got cancelled non-deterministically. For example, for the same pull request with changes pushed by the same person, sometimes all the workflows can run. But sometimes some of the workflows got cancelled (it appeared to be that one of the workflows got cancelled, and all the subsequent ones got cancelled as well - I am not too sure about this). This behavior also appears for workflows triggered by pushing.

Hi

I found a bug when pushing a new branch, is it possible the issues you describe all happened as a result of pushing new branches?

I've actually seen cases where workflows were being canceled without my app, I suspect Github workflows is still buggy as a feature.

Until I implement the debug mode we discussed in #2, could you please provide me with workflow run ids
so I can look for within the logs?

Hi, thanks for the prompt reply. I noticed the issue happened in two scenarios: 1. pushing new commits to a PR, 2. after merging a PR to the master (a push event). The first one probably is not exactly pushing a new branch.

A most recent one is actions/runs/337401494, particularly the jobs runs/1331163938 and runs/1331163990 were shown as cancelled. I am not sure which one is run id so I just pasted all the ids with paths.

@eladchen Sorry those workflows may actually have been cancelled manually by other org members. You can check on this run: actions/runs/332863662, which was merging/pushing changes to master from a PR.

UPDATE - I still haven't had time to finalize the work on this. I expect to address this during the weekend.
