Running a GitHub Actions workflow that doesn't exist yet on the default branch

Read Original

This technical article explains a workaround for running a GitHub Actions workflow with a `workflow_dispatch` trigger before it exists on the repository's default branch. It details the process of temporarily adding a `pull_request` trigger to make the workflow visible, then using the GitHub CLI to execute it manually from a feature branch for testing purposes.
