We tag our services with App and Env tags set on the service for cost allocation. It is especially useful in the AWS Cost Explorer console. The terraform definition of our services uses the propagate_tags setting when deploying the service, but our github actions do not by default do the same. This change adds the appropriate config to our github action to propagate tags the same way our terraform code does. Note that our cost alloctaions may be incorrectly categorizing charges in each of these repositories from our original merge of the gh action to now (March 28, 2025).
Problem: When ECS's circuit breaker mechanism rolls back a failing deploy, the deploy task github action will exit with a success code when infact the deployment was not successful. In order to identify unsuccessful service updates, we want the github action to fail. At time of writing, there is no option elicit this behavior from the aws-actions/amazon-ecs-deploy-task-definition@v2 action. Instead, we must check that the services current task definition is the one we attempted to roll out. See discussion in aws-actions/amazon-ecs-deploy-task-definition#191
