> If a fork of your repository has GitHub Actions enabled, the workflow also runs in the fork when its base branch is updated, and can open version pull requests there. Your repository secrets aren't available in forks either, so publishing from them would fail. To skip runs on forks, check the repository name in the job's `if` condition:
