Action fails when a previous type update PR has not been merged

@lyqht do you have an idea or should I file an issue upstream ?

Note I am using the action on push events :

name: Update database types
on:
  push:
    branches: [ main ]
    paths:
      - '*.sql'

jobs:
  build:
    if: github.head_ref != 'supabot**'
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

Hello there @alex-galey , this issue existed even on the previous way of running this github action on a scheduled frequency. I believe it is because of the repo-sync/pull-request@v2 GH action doesn't override the existing PR. There's probably a way to add a new PR/ force an override of existing PR, but i haven't look into how to do it. If you would like to work on it, let me know!

Thanks for confirming the existence of this issue.

Seems it is known (and wanted) from git-auto-commit action :

"No support for git rebase or git merge. There are many strategies on how to integrate remote upstream changes to a local repository. git-auto-commit does not want to be responsible for doing that."

I will give a try of rebasing before PR

Tried couple of things but I guess we need a git specialist here ^^ https://github.com/alex-galey/generate-supabase-db-types-github-action
