Describe the feature

We would like to change the branch of the source repository to sync from

Use Case

We use a version branch v1 in our source (template) repo to be able to handle breaking changes there. Now we figured out that we can only merge the main source branch in the action.

Proposed Solution

We use a dirty workaround and "misuse" the existing git_remote_pull_params parameter : v1 --allow-unrelated-histories --squash --strategy=recursiv e -X theirs

Better would be to add a new optional parameter like source_branch (default '') which can be used like eval "git pull ${source_repo} ${source_branch} --tags ${git_remote_pull_params}" || pull_has_issues=true
