Workflow doesn't get triggered on repository creation

Describe the bug I have a workflow set on some of my template repositories that should get triggered on push. I’m seeing an inconsistency in terms of behavior when creating a new repository from my templates: this workflow is sometimes not triggered on the initial commit (First commit)

To Reproduce

1. Create a template repository
2. Add a new workflow that should get triggered on push (except on the template repository) such as:

name: init
on: push
jobs:
  init:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    if: github.repository != 'user/your-template-repository'
    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v2
    - name: Test
      run: echo "Hello World!"

1. Create a new repository based on this template
2. Sometimes the workflow init will run inside of the new repository, but sometimes it doesn’t

Expected behavior The push trigger should always start the workflow on repository creation from template

Runner Version and Platform

2.272.0

OS of the machine running the runner? ubuntu-latest

Bump => My workflows are hit or miss when creating a new project from a template in company’s Org as well. My current workaround when the workflow is a dud involves pushing a commit on the branch I’m targeting. Certainly leaves a “not ready for primtetime” taste in my mouth TBH. 😕
