So github just provides an account you can use to do things like these?
Wild if so - I'm tempted to just merge this and run it manually to see if it works!

Seems so, I took a lot of this from the way nvim-treesitter does this for their lock file.

where are you git checkout -b this branch? or does this GHA do it for you?

So I think technically we just commit it to master, but then the next step in create-pull-request specifies the branch. I think it must just take those changes, create a new branch, and then create the pr. Sort of copying this part from https://github.com/nvim-treesitter/nvim-treesitter/blob/5e9c6b6ba079a90a2545e651e3740b655b9ff035/.github/workflows/update-lockfile.yml#L40-L56.

Alright, I'm gonna merge and we'll try it out. I fully expect something to not work right, but we'll see 😄 |

I was about to sync and send in a pr again, but I figured why not just automate this. This change adds a new CI job that will run every morning and detect if there are changes. If so, it will commit them and send in a pr.
