+name: Keep Workflow Alive
+description: |
+  This workflow is designed to keep the repository alive by making a dummy commit
+  to the `keepalive` branch to make sure the GitHub workflow will continue to run.
+  It runs on a weekly schedule and can also be triggered manually via the GitHub
+  Actions UI.
