How do I just get all changed files in a PR?

[red8888]

I confused about how this works.

I make multiple commits to branches after PRs are opened. I want to return all files apart of the PR every time.

This seems to only show changes between specific commits, I want to get all files in the PR every time:

            - name: Get changed files
              id: changed-files
              uses: tj-actions/changed-files@v42

            - name: List all changed files
              env:
                ALL_CHANGED_FILES: ${{ steps.changed-files.outputs.all_changed_files }}
              run: |
                for file in ${ALL_CHANGED_FILES}; do
                  echo "$file was changed"
                done

I tried with fetch-depth: 2 and fetch-depth: 0 on the checkout stage but I'm only seeing changes between the last push. I want to see all files that are part of the PR.

Hi @red8888 I believe you'll need to use the pull_request event to always to get a list of all changed files not just the most recent ones.

on:
  pull_request:
    branches:
      - main

jobs:
  changed_files:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    name: Test changed-files
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0

      - name: Get changed files
        id: changed-files
        uses: tj-actions/changed-files@v42

      - name: List all changed files
        env:
          ALL_CHANGED_FILES: ${{ steps.changed-files.outputs.all_changed_files }}
        run: |
          for file in ${ALL_CHANGED_FILES}; do
            echo "$file was changed"
          done
