Pull Request Description

sc-17146

What and why?

Preview for Patch release notes: 26.07.05 (#105).

Warning

This PR automatically checks out the release notes branch automated/patch-26.07.05 in .github/workflows/validate-docs-site.yaml so the preview displays the in-progress release notes (temporary ref: — remove before merge).

Release type	Patch (CMVM hotfix)
Version	26.07.05
validate-docs-site.yaml (REVERT BEFORE MERGE)	Temporary ref: automated/patch-26.07.05 on Check out release-notes repository step

How to regenerate release notes preview

After updates are pushed to the linked release-notes PR: https://github.com/validmind/release-notes/pull/105

1. Open this PR in validmind/documentation
2. Re-run Validate docs site workflow (Actions tab → Validate docs site ... in the left sidebar → Select the latest workflow run linked to this PR → Re-run all jobs)

No commits on this branch are required — that workflow already checks out release-notes branch automated/patch-26.07.05 via the temporary ref: on the Check out release-notes repository step.

REMOVE ref: TO release-notes BRANCH

Important

Remove the ref: line from the Check out release-notes repository workflow step in .github/workflows/validate-docs-site.yaml before merging — the temporary ref: must not land on documentation:main.

[github-actions]

Remove this ref: line to the working release-notes branch before merge. After the linked release-notes PR merges, workflow should check out release-notes:main. (view in .github/workflows/validate-docs-site.yaml)

PR Summary

This pull request updates the GitHub Actions workflow file (validate-docs-site.yaml) by adding a ref parameter to the checkout step for the release-notes repository. The new line explicitly sets the branch to automated/patch-26.07.05 when checking out the repository. This change ensures that the workflow picks up documentation changes from the intended branch, which can be crucial for maintaining accurate versioned release notes and documentation integrity.

Test Suggestions

• Run the GitHub Actions workflow to verify that the checkout process correctly retrieves the automated/patch-26.07.05 branch from the release-notes repository.
• Verify that the subsequent steps in the workflow can successfully locate and process the required documentation files.
• Perform a manual review of the fetched documentation content to ensure that the correct branch's files are being used.
