Don't pass commit-and-push=true when the PR is from a fork. The action has no write access to the fork's branch so the push always fails with 403, which then causes the job to fail. For fork PRs the fragment must be added manually. Co-authored-by: harshil21 <37377066+harshil21@users.noreply.github.com>
