You are not currently on a branch error on pull request push about prettier_action HOT 9 CLOSED

You're quick! Just tested, same issue. Removing the branch option does not change anything.

from prettier_action.

Can you try it with:

with:
    ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}

from prettier_action.

Very cool!

from prettier_action.

With version 3 of the prettier action, we depreciated the branch parameter. Can you try without it real quick? It shouldn't change anything, but just to be safe?

from prettier_action.

As this probably is a problem with the checkout action, could you please share the config of that?

from prettier_action.

That config if very simple:

- uses: actions/checkout@v2

from prettier_action.

That indeed solves the issue!

Same issue here. The solution does work if not on a pull request (the variable github.head_ref is only available at pulls - see https://docs.github.com/en/actions/learn-github-actions/contexts#github-context).

Workaround:

      - name: Checkout source (PR)
        if: github.event_name == 'pull_request'
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}
          show-progress: 'false'
      - name: Checkout source (no-PR)
        if: github.event_name != 'pull_request'
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          show-progress: 'false'

This does not solve the permission-denied issue, but might be better than nothing ^^.

 remote: Permission to koppor/jabref.git denied to github-actions[bot].

Not working workaround:

      - name: Checkout source
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
        with:
          submodules: 'true'
          show-progress: 'false'
      - name: Get branch name
        id: branch-name
        uses: tj-actions/branch-names@v7
      - run: git checkout ${{ steps.branch-name.outputs.current_branch }}

This fails, when PR comes from another repository
