When separate pushes reach the same branch in quick succession, the ref-level cancel-in-progress setting in this workflow cancels the first run. Comparing only the second event's before...after range means a documentation-only second push sets run-build-tests=false, even if the canceled first push contained source changes whose matrix never completed. The latest branch revision can therefore have no successful build or test coverage for those source changes; push classification must account for the last successfully tested revision or avoid canceling an in-flight build when its replacement will skip the matrix.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Confirmed and fixed in 2e2e88d. Push classification now compares the current revision with the last successful CI workflow run on the same branch, so the replacement run includes changes from any canceled in-flight run. A missing prior successful run or API error fails open to the full matrix.

When a change deletes or renames doc/README_windows.txt, this condition classifies both the old and new .txt paths as excluded, so the build matrix is skipped. However, that file is part of WINDOWS_PACKAGING in Makefile.am:60-63 and is embedded in the NSIS installer by share/setup.nsi.in:77; the source workflow validates it through make distdir, and the Windows configuration runs the deploy target. Since the remaining lint job exercises neither path, such a change can pass CI while breaking distribution or Windows installer creation, so this installer input should be exempted from the documentation exclusion.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Confirmed and fixed in 2e2e88d. Both Windows installer inputs, COPYING and doc/README_windows.txt, are now explicitly build-relevant, with focused classifier coverage.

When a change deletes or renames a tracked doc/man/*.1 file without updating the packaging rules, this suffix exclusion skips the build matrix even though doc/man/Makefile.am:3-25 lists those files in dist_man1_MANS. The source build runs make distdir at ci/dash/build_src.sh:34, which would catch the resulting missing distribution input, while the remaining lint job does not exercise that target; such a packaging-breaking change can therefore pass CI.
Useful? React with 👍 / 👎.

Confirmed and fixed in 5cde031 at the broader packaging boundary. Any removed or renamed path now forces the full build/test matrix, so stale dist_man1_MANS entries and equivalent distribution-manifest failures are exercised while content-only manpage edits can remain in the documentation exclusion zone. Focused classifier coverage verifies the fail-open decision.

Yes. Reworked in 7ab20b0 to essentially this diff: a single bash step in check-skip gating container and cache-sources, with the PR number and repository passed via env instead of inline expressions. classify_ci_changes.py and its tests are gone.

Final validation — Sol-only technical fallback
The classifier is conservative at collection and packaging boundaries, and its 13-test regression suite passes locally. One in-scope test-coverage gap remains: no repository CI target executes the new suite, so future classifier regressions can merge without exercising it.
Source: reviewers gpt-5.6-sol and glm-5.3-flash; final verifier gpt-5.6-sol.
One or more required Phase-1 GLM Flash lanes remained technically unusable after the bounded exact-model retry. Their evidence was discarded as authoritative, and the complete selected role cohort was rerun fresh on exact gpt-5.6-sol before this fresh Sol verifier produced the final decision. No additional Phase-2 reviewer pass ran.

When a PR changes more than 3,000 files and a build-relevant path is outside the returned subset (for example, the returned entries are all doc/*.md additions while an omitted entry is src/net.cpp), this command still exits successfully with only Markdown paths, so RUN=false and the container/cache-sources gates skip every build and test job. gh api --help describes --paginate only as making additional requests for all available pages, while GitHub's endpoint documentation explicitly says “Responses include a maximum of 3000 files”; fail open when the PR's changed-file count reaches/exceeds that cap rather than treating pagination as complete.

Valid; fixed in 6b8898a. The classify step now only considers skipping when github.event.pull_request.changed_files is below 3000 (and treats a missing value as 3000), so a PR large enough to hit the files-endpoint cap always runs the full matrix.
🤖 Posted autonomously by Claude on behalf of pasta.
Pull requests that only change Markdown files outside src/ currently run the full depends, build, sanitizer and functional-test matrix even though they cannot affect the compiled software. Classify the pull request's changed paths (including the previous name of renamed files) in the check-skip job and gate the full build container and the depends-source cache on the result, so every depends, build and test job skips transitively. The slim container and lint job still run. Markdown under src/ (for example the dist-listed src/crypto/ctaes/README.md) still triggers the full matrix. Pushes always run the full matrix, and an API failure or empty file list fails open. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Re-review — Final validation — Phase 1 + Phase 2
Verified the complete diff at 6b8898a and found no actionable in-scope defects. The classifier retains builds for pushes, non-Markdown paths, Markdown under src/, API failures, empty results, and PRs reaching the 3,000-file cap; dependency gates skip heavy jobs without disabling lint. This was static verification only: the supplied CI snapshot shows successful lint and some builds, with other builds and tests pending, and pull_request_target uses the base-branch workflow rather than directly validating this new behavior.

Documentation-only pull requests currently run the complete depends, cross-platform build, sanitizer and functional-test matrix even though they cannot affect the compiled software. For example, the documentation-only PR #7575 consumed roughly 212 runner-minutes in the main CI workflow.
What was done?
Following review feedback, the change is reduced to a single step in
build.yml(no helper script or test suite):check-skipjob lists the pull request's changed files (including the previous name of renamed files) and setsrun-build-tests=falseonly when every path ends in.mdand none is undersrc/.container) and the depends-source cache (cache-sources) are gated on that output, so every depends, build and test job skips transitively.src/(for examplesrc/crypto/ctaes/README.md, which is listed inCTAES_DIST) still triggers the full matrix.Required status checks on
