Kargo Excellerate CI/CD Assignment

Your assignment for this section is to create 2 Github Actions pipelines. Consider the long term maintainability for the pipelines. In this case, some forms of abstraction may be preferred, such as using a Makefile or Composite Actions.

Tasks

Your tasks are to create 2 pipelines that fulfill the following requirements. Stubs are provided.

NOTE to show pr test pipeline is running properly, perform the following

1. Create a new branch i.e. pr-test
2. Make any change in the README.md file
3. Commit the changes
4. Open a Pull Request from the new branch pr-test to master

Verification

You can verify the results of your actions configuration by opening the Github Actions tab
