Nicholas Chammas commented on SPARK-31330:
------------------------------------------

Unfortunately, it seems I jumped the gun on sending that dev email about the 
GitHub PR labeler action.

It has a fundamental limitation that currently makes it [useless for 
us|https://github.com/actions/labeler/tree/d2c408e7ed8498dfdf675c5f8d133ab37b6f8520#pull-request-labeler]:
{quote}Note that only pull requests being opened from the same repository can 
be labeled. This action will not currently work for pull requests from forks – 
like is common in open source projects – because the token for forked pull 
request workflows does not have write permissions.

I'll keep my eye on that Action in case they somehow lift or work around the 
limitation on forked repositories.

Of course, we can always implement this functionality ourselves, but the 
attraction of the GitHub Action was that we could reuse an existing, tested, 
and widely adopted implementation.
