Deployment failed with Exit code 128

[zbw182]

Describe the bug

Ran into this issue when updating our site and redeploying

Error: The deploy step encountered an error: There was an error creating the worktree: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128 ❌ ❌

Reproduction Steps

Merged in some changes, and the redeployment failed. We're most likely doing something silly here, but I'm not familiar enough with the how the deployment process works to see any obvious issues.

This line looks suspicious

fatal: 'master' is already used by worktree at '/home/runner/work/ota-analyzer/ota-analyzer'

adding the above to .github/workflows/github-actions-demo.yml results in

Error: Unable to resolve action `jamesives/github-pages-deploy-action@4.6.1`, unable to find version `4.6.1`

Any idea what's going on here : )

You need to add the letter "v" to version: JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action@v4.6.1 And also, сheck that "Read and write permissions" are enabled in "Settings -> Actions -> General -> Workflow permissions".

Thanks @SergeyFi - my bad on the typo

For context that version corresponds to a tag, you can find the full list of available ones here: https://github.com/JamesIves/github-pages-deploy-action/tags
