Changes in the GitHub Actions?

[dubinsky]

Something changed in GitHub Actions recently (for instance, there is now "Post Check out the code"
step in my build log); v2.2 started crashing with some Python stacktrace; v2.6 does not crash,
but no changes get pushed (I just get "Your branch is up to date"). When I added rebase: true, I got: "Please tell me who you are. ... user.email ... user.name ..." - looks like defaults do not apply in the rebase case, so I had to set email and name explicitly...

I see similar picture. Code:

    - name: git status
      run: git status
    - name: commit kernel-specific library
      uses: github-actions-x/commit@v2.6
      with:
        github-token: ${{ secrets.BPFINK_COMMIT_TOKEN }}
        commit-message: 'bump kernel-specific libraries'

Output:

---

Same problem here. Any fixes?

[cristinallamas]

same :) no actual changes get committed, I can see the files that changed but no commit takes place
