# Documentation of this action | |
# | |
# This action is designed to catch cases where developers make inconsistent changes to | |
# functions.rst and MethodDoc.C. MethodDoc.C is ordinarily *generated* from functions.rst | |
# So, developers should just edit functions.rst and then follow the documentation | |
# https://visit-sphinx-github-user-manual.readthedocs.io/en/develop/dev_manual/UpdatingPythonDocStrings.html | |
# to regenerate MethodDoc.C. | |
# | |
# The logic in this action only gets triggered if any of the files listed as `path` members of | |
# `the pull_request` action are involved. Next, if any those files are involved, it then examines | |
# the list of ALL changed files in the PR to check if functions.rst is invovled and if MethodDoc.C | |
# is involved. | |
# | |
# If either one or the other is involved but not both, it fails with an error message. | |
# | |
# If both are involved, it then tries to perform the MethodDoc.C generation and confirm the | |
# result is what is being committed. If not, it fails also. | |
