How can I Push and Commit Two files at once using Github APIs

Body

I am currently implementing an automated CI/CD workflow for Business Central deployment, which is triggered upon file commit and push events. As part of this process, my backend generates a file and uploads it using the GitHub API.

However, I’ve encountered an issue: if a workflow is already running for a previous commit, and my backend attempts to send a new file, it results in an error. To address this, I would like to explore the possibility of sending multiple files at same time using the GitHub API.

Is it feasible to push both files at the same time to avoid this conflict?

Thank you for your support.

Best regards,
Yash

You can bundle multiple file changes into a single commit and push them together, thereby triggering only one workflow run and avoiding conflicts caused by overlapping commits.

Thanks.

Yes, it's absolutely possible to bundle multiple file changes into a single commit using the GitHub REST API. You can create blobs (files), a tree (file structure), a commit (snapshot), and then update the branch—all via API.
