translation-sync-action

Opens one issue in a translation fork listing the upstream files that changed since the fork last synced. Files under the content paths are listed as content; everything else under the tracked paths is grouped by area as dev infra.

Use

Add the state file to the fork, with the upstream commit you last synced to:

{ "lastSyncedSha": "0123456789abcdef0123456789abcdef01234567" }

Save it as .github/translation-sync.json, then add a workflow:

name: Translation sync
on:
  schedule:
    - cron: '0 6 * * *'
  workflow_dispatch:
permissions:
  contents: read
  issues: write
jobs:
  report:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: erkamyaman/translation-sync-action@main

After a sync, set lastSyncedSha to the commit the issue names. The issue updates on every run and closes itself when nothing changed.
