@ -150,15 +146,13 @@ There are a number of workarounds with different pros and cons.

 - Use the default `GITHUB_TOKEN` and allow the action to create pull requests that have no checks enabled. Manually close pull requests and immediately reopen them. This will enable `on: pull_request` workflows to run and be added as checks. To prevent merging of pull requests without checks erroneously, use [branch protection rules](https://docs.github.com/en/repositories/configuring-branches-and-merges-in-your-repository/defining-the-mergeability-of-pull-requests).

- Create draft pull requests by setting the `draft: always-true` input, and configure your workflow to trigger `on: ready_for_review`. The workflow will run when users manually click the "Ready for review" button on the draft pull requests. If the pull request is updated by the action, the `always-true` mode ensures that the pull request will be converted back to a draft.
-
- Use a [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token) created on an account that has write access to the repository that pull requests are being created in. This is the standard workaround and [recommended by GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/triggering-a-workflow#triggering-a-workflow-from-a-workflow). It's advisable to use a dedicated [machine account](https://docs.github.com/en/github/site-policy/github-terms-of-service#3-account-requirements) that has collaborator access to the repository, rather than creating a PAT on a personal user account. Also note that because the account that owns the PAT will be the creator of pull requests, that user account will be unable to perform actions such as request changes or approve the pull request.
+- Use a `repo` scoped [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token) created on an account that has write access to the repository that pull requests are being created in. This is the standard workaround and [recommended by GitHub](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/triggering-a-workflow#triggering-a-workflow-from-a-workflow). However, the PAT cannot be scoped to a specific repository so the token becomes a very sensitive secret. If this is a concern, the PAT can instead be created for a dedicated [machine account](https://docs.github.com/en/github/site-policy/github-terms-of-service#3-account-requirements) that has collaborator access to the repository. Also note that because the account that owns the PAT will be the creator of pull requests, that user account will be unable to perform actions such as request changes or approve the pull request.

 - Use [SSH (deploy keys)](#push-using-ssh-deploy-keys) to push the pull request branch. This is arguably more secure than using a PAT because deploy keys can be set per repository. However, this method will only trigger `on: push` workflows.

 - Use a [machine account that creates pull requests from its own fork](#push-pull-request-branches-to-a-fork). This is the most secure because the PAT created only grants access to the machine account's fork, not the main repository. This method will trigger `on: pull_request` workflows to run. Workflows triggered `on: push` will not run because the push event is in the fork.

- Use a [GitHub App to generate a token](#authenticating-with-github-app-generated-tokens) that can be used with this action. GitHub App generated tokens are more secure than using a Classic PAT because access permissions can be set with finer granularity and are scoped to only repositories where the App is installed. This method will trigger both `on: push` and `on: pull_request` workflows.

 ### Push using SSH (deploy keys)

-[Deploy keys](https://developer.github.com/v3/guides/managing-deploy-keys/#deploy-keys) can be set per repository and so are arguably more secure than using a Classic [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token).

 Allowing the action to push with a configured deploy key will trigger `on: push` workflows. This makes it an alternative to using a PAT to trigger checks for pull requests.

-#### Pushing to a fork with fine-grained permissions
-
-Using a fine-grained [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token) or [GitHub App](#authenticating-with-github-app-generated-tokens) with `push-to-fork` can be achieved, but comes with some caveats.
-
-When using `push-to-fork`, the action needs permissions for two different repositories.
-It needs `contents: write` for the fork to push the branch, and `pull-requests: write` for the parent repository to create the pull request.
-
-There are two main scenarios:
-1. The parent and fork have different owners. In this case, it's not possible to create a token that is scoped to both repositories so different tokens must be used for each.
-2. The parent and fork both have the same owner (i.e. they exist in the same org). In this case, a single token can be scoped to both repositories, but the permissions granted cannot be different. So it would defeat the purpose of using `push-to-fork`, and you might as well just create the pull request directly on the parent repository.
-
-For the first scenario, the solution is to scope the token for the fork, and use the `branch-token` input to push the branch.
-The `token` input will then default to the repository's `GITHUB_TOKEN`, which will be used to create the pull request.
-
-> [!NOTE]
-> Solution limitations:
-> - Since `GITHUB_TOKEN` will be used to create the pull request, the workflow *must* be executing in the parent repository where the pull request should be created.
-> - `maintainer-can-modify` *must* be set to `false`, because the `GITHUB_TOKEN` will not have `write` access to the head branch in the fork.
-
-The following is an example of pushing to a fork using GitHub App tokens.
-```yaml
-      - uses: actions/create-github-app-token@v1
-        id: generate-token
-        with:
-          app-id: ${{ secrets.APP_ID }}
-          private-key: ${{ secrets.APP_PRIVATE_KEY }}
-          owner: owner
-          repositories: fork-of-repo
-
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4

-      # Make changes to pull request here

-      - name: Create Pull Request

-          push-to-fork: owner/fork-of-repo

 ### Authenticating with GitHub App generated tokens

 A GitHub App can be created for the sole purpose of generating tokens for use with GitHub actions.
-GitHub App generated tokens can be configured with fine-grained permissions and are scoped to only repositories where the App is installed.
+These tokens can be used in place of `GITHUB_TOKEN` or a [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token).
+GitHub App generated tokens are more secure than using a PAT because GitHub App access permissions can be set with finer granularity and are scoped to only repositories where the App is installed.

-### Commit signing
-
-[Commit signature verification](https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/managing-commit-signature-verification/about-commit-signature-verification) is a feature where GitHub will mark signed commits as "verified" to give confidence that changes are from a trusted source.
-Some organizations require commit signing, and enforce it with branch protection rules.
-
-The action supports two methods to sign commits, [commit signature verification for bots](#commit-signature-verification-for-bots), and [GPG commit signature verification](#gpg-commit-signature-verification).
-
-#### Commit signature verification for bots
-
-The action can sign commits as `github-actions[bot]` when using the repository's default `GITHUB_TOKEN`, or your own bot when using [GitHub App tokens](#authenticating-with-github-app-generated-tokens).
-
-> [!IMPORTANT]  
-> - When setting `sign-commits: true` the action will ignore the `committer` and `author` inputs.
-> - If you attempt to use a [Personal Access Token (PAT)](https://docs.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token) the action will create the pull request, but commits will *not* be signed. Commit signing is only supported with bot generated tokens.
-> - The GitHub API has a 40MiB limit when creating git blobs. An error will be raised if there are files in the pull request larger than this. If you hit this limit, use [GPG commit signature verification](#gpg-commit-signature-verification) instead.
-
-In this example the `token` input is not supplied, so the action will use the repository's default `GITHUB_TOKEN`. This will sign commits as `github-actions[bot]`.
-```yaml
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-
-      # Make changes to pull request here
-
-      - name: Create Pull Request
-        uses: peter-evans/create-pull-request@v7
-        with:
-          sign-commits: true
-```
-
-In this example, the `token` input is generated using a GitHub App. This will sign commits as `<application-name>[bot]`.
-```yaml
-    steps:
-      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
-
-      - uses: actions/create-github-app-token@v1
-        id: generate-token
-        with:

-## Updating from `v6` to `v7`
-
-### Behaviour changes
-
- Action input `git-token` has been renamed `branch-token`, to be more clear about its purpose. The `branch-token` is the token that the action will use to create and update the branch.
- The action now handles requests that have been rate-limited by GitHub. Requests hitting a primary rate limit will retry twice, for a total of three attempts. Requests hitting a secondary rate limit will not be retried.
- The `pull-request-operation` output now returns `none` when no operation was executed.
- Removed deprecated output environment variable `PULL_REQUEST_NUMBER`. Please use the `pull-request-number` action output instead.
-
-### What's new
-
- The action can now sign commits as `github-actions[bot]` when using `GITHUB_TOKEN`, or your own bot when using [GitHub App tokens](concepts-guidelines.md#authenticating-with-github-app-generated-tokens). See [commit signing](concepts-guidelines.md#commit-signature-verification-for-bots) for details.
- Action input `draft` now accepts a new value `always-true`. This will set the pull request to draft status when the pull request is updated, as well as on creation.
- A new action input `maintainer-can-modify` indicates whether [maintainers can modify](https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/collaborating-with-pull-requests/working-with-forks/allowing-changes-to-a-pull-request-branch-created-from-a-fork) the pull request. The default is `true`, which retains the existing behaviour of the action.
- A new output `pull-request-commits-verified` returns `true` or `false`, indicating whether GitHub considers the signature of the branch's commits to be verified.
