fix: exclude activity-state.json from sync-leaderboard workflow commits

[jagdish-15]

PR #398 introduced data/activity-state.json, which is written by scripts/analyze-inactivity.js.

The analyze-inactivity.yml workflow correctly commits only inactive-users.json. However, the sync-leaderboard.yml workflow stages changes using git add . and only resets users.json and inactive-users.json, meaning activity-state.json will also be staged and committed on every leaderboard sync and cause conflicts when both workflows run together.

Affected File

• .github/workflows/sync-leaderboard.yml

Expected Behaviour

activity-state.json should only be committed by analyze-inactivity.yml. The leaderboard sync workflow should ignore it.

Proposed Fix

After the existing git reset commands in sync-leaderboard.yml, add:

git reset -q activity-state.json

Hello, @codepvg @jagdish-15,
I’d like to work on this issue under gssoc'26.
I’ve reviewed the workflow behavior and the proposed fix, and I can update sync-leaderboard.yml so that activity-state.json is excluded from leaderboard sync commits while preserving the existing workflow behavior.

Could you please assign this issue to me? Thank you!
