Github action does not trigger when I push code from a local to a remote branch

Question

I created a Github action that prints out some strings with the statement. The action triggers when I make commits on github.com, but does not trigger when I make commits locally and push them to the remote repository at github.com. Why is this?

Here is my action...

name: FeatureCI
on:
  push:
    branches:
      - '*'
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v1
    - name: Run a one-line script
      run: echo "Only on featuer branches"
    - name: Run a multi-line script
      run: |
        echo "Only on featuer branches1"
        echo "Only on featuer branches2"

Answer 1

Try simplifying your 'on' trigger. Since you don't care which branch you are pushing to, it can be stated as so:

on: [push]

Answer 2

I ran into a similar issue. In addition to Lando1n's suggestion, I would recommend making sure that your action file is on the desired feature branch. When you push from feature-branch, Github will only execute actions that are specified in the action file on feature-branch. See my similar answer here.

Not a solution but in my case, it was just a delay on GitHub side.

After poking around with my workflow .yml file I found nothing wrong, and then GH suddenly started to run my pipelines.
