Repository Labels

This directory contains the configuration for GitHub repository labels that are automatically synced by the label-sync workflow.

Files

• labels.yml: Defines all labels used in this repository
• workflows/label-sync.yml: Workflow that automatically syncs labels

How It Works

The label-sync workflow automatically:

1. Runs when changes are pushed to the main branch
2. Reads label definitions from labels.yml
3. Creates or updates labels in the repository
4. Preserves existing labels not defined in the config file

Adding New Labels

To add a new label:

1. Edit .github/labels.yml
2. Add your label definition:

   - name: "your-label-name"
     color: "hexcolor"  # without # prefix
     description: "Label description"

3. Commit and push to main branch
4. The workflow will automatically sync the labels

Required Labels

The following labels are required by Dependabot and other automation:

• github-actions: For GitHub Actions dependency updates
• dependencies: For all dependency updates
• python: For Python dependency updates
• docker: For Docker dependency updates

Manual Trigger

You can manually trigger the label sync workflow from the Actions tab in GitHub.
