The likelihood is that the action is not running within the actual folder where the git directory was established. You may need to change directory before running it, or run the checkout step prior which will handle this for you. |

I'd like to promote this thread to a bug. This action should also work with empty repositories (i.e. making the initial commit on gh-pages). I think you should detect if there's already a repository checked out or not, and act accordingly. Or even better, copy the files to the temp folder first, and initialize a new repository in that temp folder afterwards and leave the environmental repository intact. What if I'd like to use a custom origin, for example? Here is my hotfix for the problem which also presents a use-case: lezsakdomi/gfp-ring-detector@7e84aa7...1628d94 |

What happens in this workflow if you remove the For this type of workflow you can resolve this in the meantime by running the checkout step before you download the artifacts. |

Unfortunately that didn't work either. CI yml: https://github.com/lezsakdomi/gfp-ring-detector/blob/92eb0a2e36d6b07352ddeb32987054b484ab2faf/.github/workflows/python-app.yml#L75 Unfortunately it seems like the logs are not public, so I copied them below. Here are the logs from my step: And from the action: |

Can you try pointing your workflow to JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action@releases/v4-init and remove the workarounds and try again? |

Hmm it looks like the yml file in the original post was fixed the same approach I used: Creating an initial commit just to fix the action. |

This action more or less depends on
actions/checkoutto run prior to it in order for it to establish the git directory in the workspace. If time permits I can look into implementing a fix for this long term so this isn't necessary, or if someone would like to take this task on I'd be happy to support with reviewing and quality checking the release. For an example of what this might look like you can click here, the contribution guide will help you get setup. It mostly just need test coverage, but unfortunately I don't have the time at the minute to finish this up.
