Auto: Auto Shipit with Protected Branch

Describe the bug
When running auto in a CI environment, e.g. Github Actions, auto shipit will fail when master branch protection is turned on. Is there any way, maybe by setting up permissions in a certain way, to overcome this issue without disabling branch protection?

To Reproduce

Using the following Github Action workflow and setting master as a protected branch will result in a failed push attempt with this error message:

Error: Running command 'git' with args [push, --follow-tags, --set-upstream, origin, master] failed

remote: error: GH006: Protected branch update failed for refs/heads/master.        
remote: error: At least 1 approving review is required by reviewers with write access.
