Problem
The GitHub Actions workflow was failing when syncing with upstream LoopKit/LoopWorkspace due to merge conflicts in
fastlane/Fastfile:This prevented the automated sync process from keeping the fork up-to-date with upstream improvements, breaking the continuous integration workflow.
Solution
This PR validates and confirms that the existing custom sync scripts properly resolve the merge conflict issue by implementing the recommended "Option A" approach - keeping the fork's main branch identical to upstream by automatically discarding local Fastfile edits.
Key Components
Custom Sync Scripts: The repository already contains robust conflict resolution scripts:
Scripts/sync_with_upstream.sh- Handles full sync with automatic conflict resolutionScripts/check_upstream_changes.sh- Lightweight upstream change detectionAutomatic Conflict Resolution: The sync script automatically resolves
fastlane/Fastfileconflicts by taking the upstream version:git checkout --theirs "fastlane/Fastfile"Workflow Integration: The
build_loop.ymlworkflow has been updated to use these custom scripts instead of the failingFork-Sync-With-Upstream-action.Testing
Verified the solution works correctly with real merge conflict scenarios:
fastlane/FastfileconflictsResult
The automated sync process now works reliably even when merge conflicts occur in
fastlane/Fastfile. The fork automatically stays current with upstream LoopKit improvements while maintaining the build automation workflow without manual intervention.The solution ensures the fork's main branch tracks upstream exactly for critical build configuration files while preserving the ability to apply customizations through other mechanisms like patches or feature branches.
