Actions: Job with an "if: always()" are skipped

[sleeperss]

Description

Jobs with an if: always() statement that depends on a skipped one are also skipped.

on: 
  push:
    branches:
      - master

jobs:
  job1:
    name: Skipped job
    if: false
    steps:
      - run: echo "I am skipped"

  job2:
    name: Mustn't be skipped
    needs: job1
    if: always()
    steps:
      - run: echo "I should have been displayed :'("

This makes intermediate optional job impossible

Does Github support this?

@KN4CK3R Yes, exemples :

According to GitHub's documentation, always() should cause the step to always execute

Causes the step to always execute, and returns true, even when canceled.

There is an example from Example: Not requiring successful dependent jobs

jobs:
  job1:
  job2:
    needs: job1
  job3:
    if: ${{ always() }}
    needs: [job1, job2]
