git config user.name github-actions
git config user.email github-actions@github.com
git add ${{ steps.dev-to.outputs.newly-sync-articles }}
git commit -m "sync: Zenn with DEV [skip ci]"
git push

# Output the title and URL of the article synced to DEV.
- name: Get the output articles.
run: echo "${{ steps.dev-to.outputs.articles }}"Initially, I recommend running the following GitHub Action to sync all your articles to DEV. https://github.com/nikaera/zenn.dev/blob/main/.github/workflows/sync-zenn-with-dev-action-all.yml
After that, you can use the following GitHub Action to synchronize the article as soon as there are changes in the article file. https://github.com/nikaera/zenn.dev/blob/main/.github/workflows/sync-zenn-with-dev.yml
