I recently ran into a situation where a merge commit (which admittedly are undesirable in git/git and gitgitgadget/git Pull Requests, but are sometimes totally appropriate in the context of other forks such as git-for-windows/git) misled the logic in the check-whitespace workflow to look at upstream commits (and missing some patches that it should have looked at). At the same time, I also realized that the feature where this workflow adds a PR comment in an attempt to be more helpful requires a read/write token (which weakens the overall security, I'd much rather stay with the read-only token configured e.g. in gitgitgadget/git and in git-for-windows/git). This patch series addresses both issues.
