Problem setting git username/email with GH_PAT only

[ndom91]

🐞 Describe the bug

Our sync action stopped working ~5 days ago (seemingly after this was merged - #153). Throwing an error that the git username/email was missing.

We're passing only a GH_PAT, not an installation token.

Hi @ndom91, thanks for reporting this!

I will take a look and get this fixed asap.

I can't seem to reproduce your issue. I tried running the action with only the GH_PAT and it is working without any errors (see the test run).

Could you enable the step debug logging by setting the ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG secret to true and try again? It should print that it is setting the git username and email.

Thanks for taking a look! We'll give that a try and get back to you.

Yes, we can try that.

I got 404 on your test run, by the way. Is it a hidden repository you link to?

FWIW, pinning down to the previous version worked:

Whoops, yeah it was set to private. Fixed now.

Just checking in, is the issue still coming up? @balazsorban44 @ndom91

Closing this for now. Please reopen it if the issue persists.
