Description
The
Analyze (python)CodeQL job failed with “no source code seen during build” because Python analysis was always included, even when the scanned ref had no tracked.pyfiles. This change makes the CodeQL language matrix conditional so Python analysis only runs when Python sources exist..github/workflows/codeql.yml.detect-languagesjob that builds the matrix from repository contents:actionspythononly ifgit ls-files '*.py'returns matchesanalyzenow consumes that dynamic matrix.contents: read).Type of change
(Please delete options that are not relevant)

To ensure the changes are working as expected:
.github/workflows/codeql.yml(dynamic language matrix generation).pythonwhen tracked.pyfiles exist and excludes it when none exist; validateAnalyze (actions)still runs.Additional Media:
