Looks good! I tested removing and re-adding the label and it seemed to work well.

Great that we can do this. Could you explain why it has to be skipped if label is present in pr? Why not pass?

Currently, there GitHub action does not support an else statement to tell the task has passed. I looked at adding two different tasks, but failed to trigger the action. So this was the shortest implementation, but I can research further to come up with a better solution.

Could the following work:

Two if clauses?

[Yaswant Pradhan (yaswant)]

That's what I tried in one of the commits, but the action failed to trigger. I did not investigate in detail.. Will try again.

[Michael Cooke (mikecooke77)]

The reason I am pushing is that to make it a JCSDA acceptable solution I think it would need to be a pass rather than skipped.

Once we have failed or passed I think they could be persuaded.

[Chris Thomas (ctgh)]

Maybe you should take off the label in order to stop a premature merge ;)

[Yaswant Pradhan (yaswant)]

I am uncertain (cant verify in this PR) if the "Check Label" badge appears for fresh PR. According to GitHub action documentation this should.

Michael Cooke (@mikecooke77) I suggest we merge the changes now and opens a separate issue if it did not function as intended.

One final question before I approve. This will happen for all PRs I think not just ones to develop is that the intention?
