You can just create a channel in discord and create a webhook for it then add that webhook to your GitHub repo on the settings(content-type should be Jain) then immediately when any change happens you’ll be notified

I like, nay, love, the fact the word "just" is so prominent in the description of your solution.
...considering building a "just" expander that shows all the steps required to "just" do anything.
I mean...it is just three steps involving some clicks and no code. I think that fits the bar for "just"
with the small asterisk that this mechanism only works for repos where one has sufficient privileges to be able to create a webhook, and that doesn't square up with the original title of "a file on GitHub"
I think this only works if you have admin on the repo.
Well, the solution includes filtering down to specific files. "any change" might just be noise.
