Create Pull Request v2.0.0

v2 major version release 🚀

Breaking changes

• v2 now expects repositories to be checked out with actions/checkout@v2

  To use actions/checkout@v1 the following step to checkout the branch is necessary.

      - uses: actions/checkout@v1
      - name: Checkout branch
        run: git checkout "${GITHUB_REF:11}"
  

• The two branch naming strategies have been swapped. Fixed branch naming strategy is now the default. i.e. branch-suffix: none is now the default and should be removed from configuration if set.

• author-name, author-email, committer-name, committer-email have been removed in favour of author and committer.
  They can both be set in the format Display Name <email@address.com>

  If neither author or committer are set the action will default to making commits as the GitHub Actions bot user.

New features

• Unpushed commits made during the workflow before the action runs will now be considered as changes to be raised in the pull request. See Controlling commits for details.
• New commits made to the pull request base will now be taken into account when pull requests are updated.
• If an updated pull request no longer differs from its base it will automatically be closed and the pull request branch deleted.
