[Feature] Wildcard-Branch protection about branch-protection-bot

[crazy-matt]

Or putting in the README as a step example something like:

 - name: "Temporarily disable 'include administrators' default branch protection"
        uses: benjefferies/[email protected]
        if: always()
        with:
          access-token: ${{ secrets.ACCESS_TOKEN }}
          branch: ${{ github.event.repository.default_branch }}

which catch the attention straight away

I'm happy to accept a PR that will automatically create branch protection rules as this is an issue when master branch doesn't have branch protection. The only requests I would have is:

• Default branch pattern is set to master
• Handles the case where the branch protection already exists
• Backwards compatible

What advantage do you see in deleting branch protection over disabling?

How do you disable a branch protection? I don't see an option for that..

Sorry I meant disabling 'include administrators'

Hi guys,
I wonder if you shouldn't put the default branch as being 'main'. As the new repos are now created with main as a standard on Github. But nothing important really.

Otherwise, I just loved the idea of this action to handle a situation that Github does not want to handle at the moment probably for security implications. Tested it and it does the job like a charm! Thanks @benjefferies for that
