Before the change?

  • Creating a new github_repository resource with archived = true and visibility = "private" would fail with 403
  • Docs stated that unarchiving a repository via API wasn't supported

After the change?

  • Creating a new github_repository resource with archived = true will "stop" execution in Create to only set archived on the repo.
  • Docs updated to show that unarchiving is supported

Pull request checklist

  • Schema migrations have been created if needed (example)
  • Tests for the changes have been added (for bug fixes / features)
  • Docs have been reviewed and added / updated if needed (for bug fixes / features)

@deiga could we not just add a diff check function and disable the creation of archived repositories full stop? We could re-visit the functionality once the repository resource has been refactored.

On a separate note, the repository resource really needs to be refactored to avoid the calling of create -> update -> read or update -> read.

Yes please to the latter.

Fair point to the former. I'll need to revisit this PR as my solution probably didn't consider "what should we allow"

@stevehipwell Not for the whole repo changes, just the vulnerability alerts
