Not sure if the failing CI is related to the change, thoughts @patrickjahns ?

@gardar

Unfortunately it is the case - I've merged a couple of dependency PRs yesterday and the main branch is still green:
https://github.com/patrickjahns/version-drafter-action/actions/runs/4198960074/jobs/7283253356

Most likely it's an issue with https://github.com/release-drafter/release-drafter - maybe it's a well known issue and a fix is available upstream and you could bump the version used

On a different note - can you please share why the change is needed ? Why do you want to / need to run the action on different events than a push ( to main ) ?

Ok rebased upstream, let's see if it fixes it.

In my case I want to be certain that the release workflow only runs upon successful merge to default branch and I don't want it to run if directly pushed to the default branch. But I see other use cases as well, for example if you only want to trigger a release workflow on workflow_dispatch, etc.

Ok so nope, sadly a simple rebase wasn't enough.

A quick google search for the error led me to this: release-drafter/release-drafter#578

Most likely updating the dependency can work.
Tests cases should catch any issues.

If you want to allow more events, it would then be great to have at least 1-2 more tests cases covering anything besides a push scenario
