| # GitHub scheduled workflows run on the default branch ('stable' in the case of | |
| # gem5). this means for changes in a workflow to take effect, the default | |
| # branch must be updated. This is not ideal as it requires regular commits into | |
| # the stable branch. Ideally we just want to update the workflow on develop and | |
| # have it run on the develop branch. | |
| # | |
| # This workflow is designed to run on the stable branch and will trigger other | |
| # workflows on the develop branch. | |
| # | |
| # To do so we simply schedule this workflow to run every hour and use some | |
| # simple bash logic to determine if the current time is when we want to run the | |
| # other workflows. | |
