Allen Wittenauer commented on YETUS-966:
----------------------------------------
Notes:
* With checkoutv2 and fetch-depth 0, the githubactions robot no longer needs to
modify the repo. Will update the docs to reflect that.
Code path is basically:
```
git reset --hard
git clean
git checkout --force (default branch)
git pull --rebase
git checkout --force (patch branch)
git fetch
git reset --hard FETCH_HARD
git clean
```
Details:
* reset and clean the repo to the top because who knows what state it is in
* checkout the default branch
* update all branches to the latest (note that --tags is not provided... it
probably should be)
* At this point, all remote branches and the main branch should be relatively
good to go to compare against
* checkout the branch that is going to get worked on, forcibly overwriting any
craziness
* update it to be the same as remote by doing a fetch + reset
* clean again
Where things go wrong is the git reset --hard FETCH_HARD. There is no
guarantee that FETCH_HARD actually refers to the ref we just fetched if there
were no changes. Running these commands locally completely duplicates what I
see on GitHub.
Now how to fix this without breaking everything else ...
> github actions very confused about tags?
