The problem is that i try to find commit comment but not PR comment

[dmitry-engineer]

I use your GitHub action commit-comment. Is it possible to find comment to a commit?

Hi @dmitry-engineer

Is it possible to find comment to a commit?

Unfortunately it's not possible with this action. Commit comments are treated differently to issue and pull request commits in GitHub's API. This action only supports issue and pull request comments.

I tried to search for other actions on the GitHub marketplace that might help you.
The only one I found was this one: https://github.com/dlouisenz/last-commit-message-text-finder-action

Hey.

Sorry to dig this old issue up, but I rather ask here than making a duplicate.
I want to use this action to find a PR comment from the github-actions account.

My question right now is, whether the name would be github-actions or github-actions[bot] as I'm not sure how names are looked up on GitHub and with this action.

@Andre601 The correct name of the bot account is github-actions[bot]
