GitHub Actions: accessing secrets/credentials in pull requests

[adambkaplan]

Meeting minutes:

• Windows Container Builds
  • Full chain of Shipwright BuildRuns probably need to support Windows - Tekton, our injected code (git clone), the build strategy itself
  • BuildRuns need to be able to select Windows nodes
  • Alternatives - perhaps try with Tekton to launch a Windows instance in KubeVirt?
  • If this can be done in a single Tekton Task, then there may be room to convert it into a build strategy.
• Secrets/credentials in PRs
  • PRs run on the user's fork, therefore can't access secrets on the shipwright-io repositories
  • We can run these tests when code merges to the main branch.
  • CI tests should be configured to skip tests if the required credential is not present (environment variable is empty).
  • Using the pull_request_target context was evaluated, considered too dangerous for PR tests.
