Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/1253

Act version

act version 0.2.26

Feature description

We can choose the job, but not the workflow,
We can point to other folders of workflow files, but not a specific workflow file.

So when i have a workflow (among many others) that contains a complex fan out fan in flow, how can i run all the jobs in just that workflow file?

We should talk about a flag that controls which workflow file to run:

act --workflow="pathname to workflow file"
