Stale action showing up several times in "checks"

[ryanwilsonperkin]

Hi, we've just started using this action on one of our repos and I noticed that it's reporting a "check" against our commits for everything that's in an open PR. This is resulting in some PR commits as having many such "checks" against them, is there a way to avoid this?

Here's a recent example of a PR that was open over night having ~18 "checks" against it for the stale action workflow:

I'm concerned that this will drown out the otherwise useful checks that we're using for CI reporting on our PRs.

I don't think there's a way to avoid this right now, we're working on addressing this behavior though - its being tracked in actions/toolkit#86

We have shipped a fix for this. Here's a blog post with more information https://github.blog/changelog/2019-09-24-ui-changes-in-github-actions-checks/

@gimenete Still seeing this currently in our PRs under the scenario -

on:
  pull_request:
    types: [labeled, unlabeled, opened, edited, reopened, synchronize]

@ajcann you may want to open a new issue linking this one and tagging their support team, I don't work at GitHub 🙂

Whoops wrong @ thanks :)

@ajcann can you link me to a PR where that happens? Thanks!

@gimenete Sure thing - I created a public example repo and PR here: https://github.com/ajcann/multiple-checks-issue/pull/2

@ajcann sorry for the super late response. But this should be fixed now!
