Purpose of the stale.yml Workflow

The purpose of the stale.yml workflow is to generate random commit messages and push them to the repository at regular intervals. This workflow is scheduled to run every hour and performs the following steps:

• Checks out the repository using the actions/checkout@v4 action.
• Introduces a random delay between 0 to 60 seconds.
• Generates two random commit messages using predefined types, scopes, actions, and issues.
• Configures the Git user email and name using secrets.
• Pulls the latest changes from the repository.
• Commits and pushes five empty commits with random messages, each followed by a random sleep between 30 to 60 seconds.
• Optionally creates a release if specified in the workflow inputs.

The workflow is defined in the file .github/workflows/stale.yml located in the .github/workflows directory.
