Regression - github action no longer works after commit b4018c22f8fe8371bd6845d0cd62cebea54ce012

[Hekzory]

Summary

Before I could run ansible-lint github action in non-root repository directory via working_directory variable (actual config in screenshot below). It would also read my ansible.cfg, install requirements, etc. in that specific directory

Now I can't. If this is not a regression but a breaking change, how can I achieve it now?

Pretty sure it broke after b4018c2, or really close to that commit

There is an assumption the working directory is one with a .git folder.

Current work around is to create a fake .git directory in your working directory.

      - name: Add fake .git dir
        run: mkdir -p <working_directory>/.git
