# Keep this in step with `isTranslationBranch` in the action's src/branch-naming.ts
# — this `if` decides whether the job runs, that predicate decides which open PRs
# it then rebases, so a prefix matching only one of them is a no-op run.
# The head-repo check is belt-and-braces: fork PRs never receive secrets, so
# the PAT is not exposed either way — but a merged fork PR whose branch happens
# to match a prefix would otherwise start this job with an empty token and fail
# red. Same-repo branches matching these prefixes only come from the tooling.

# PAT rather than the default GITHUB_TOKEN, deliberately: commits pushed
