Potential fix for https://github.com/kylecorry31/Trail-Sense/security/code-scanning/1
The fix for this problem is to add a
permissionsblock to the job definition (or to the root of the workflow if multiple jobs share the same requirements) specifying the minimum needed permissions. In this workflow, most steps require only read access to repository contents, but theCreate Pull Requeststep needs permission to write to pull requests. Therefore, the recommended fix is to add:to the root of the workflow file, which will apply these permissions to all jobs in the workflow. If you expect to create multiple jobs with different permissions in the future, you may also set it at the job level. In this case, since there is only one job, setting at the root is simplest and follows best practices.
You should insert the block near the top, after the workflow
name(as per the YAML structure shown in the example), and before theon:block.Suggested fixes powered by Copilot Autofix. Review carefully before merging.
