"add" with array input doesn't seem to work #533

Closed yaakov-h closed 1 year ago

yaakov-h commented 1 year ago

Describe the bug When using "add" with multiple inputs as a JSON or YAML array, it logs an error and does not add any files.

Workflow used YAML array (multiline list): https://github.com/pyconau/2023-website/commit/0f778f1f7d00d333026795316d9c2967eed0991d JSON array (single line): https://github.com/pyconau/2023-website/commit/d3f72484808941d5caa7dd16530215326e81881a

Expected behavior Multiple invocations of git add would be run to add multiple directories to the git staging area

Hi, I see that you're using an old version of the action: can you update to the latest one and try again? You can find all breaking changes in the release notes ;)

If anyone else ends up here because they are confused...

The add data is a multiline string interpreted as a YAML array, like OP tried. The problem is OP used a very old version (v5.3.0) while arrays has been supported since v6.
