Also encountering this while using actions/checkout@v3 with and withoutfetch-depth: 0,

[laygir]

is there way to enable debug logs for this action, couldn't find it in the docs.

Anyone solved this? Running into the same issue with pretty standard workflow:

Error: Command failed: /action-release/dist/sentry-cli releases set-commits sentry-release --auto
error: No commits found. Change commits range, initial depth or use --ignore-empty to allow empty patch sets.

Sometimes it passses/ sometime it fails. I am getting pretty annoyed by "releases" in sentry.

Errors are amazing in sentry, everything works just like that out of the box. But these releases man, I am couple of hours already in and still doesn't work as I would like. Bad experience.

[laygir]

This action didn't work for me properly and I switched over to using sentry-cli directly.

# createSentryRelease.sh

# Retrieve package version and name from package.json
VERSION=$(node -p "require('./package.json').version")
PROJECT_NAME=$(node -p "require('./package.json').name")

printf "Will use $PROJECT_NAME@$VERSION\n"

# Replace with your organization slug
ORGANIZATION_SLUG="xxx"
# Accept environment as an argument with fallback to 'development'
ENVIRONMENT="${1:-development}"

# Create a new release with package name
RELEASE_NAME="$PROJECT_NAME@$VERSION"

# Create a new release
sentry-cli releases new "$RELEASE_NAME" --project "$PROJECT_NAME" --org "$ORGANIZATION_SLUG"

# Associate commits with the release, ignoring missing commits
sentry-cli releases set-commits "$RELEASE_NAME" --auto --ignore-missing --org "$ORGANIZATION_SLUG"

# Finalize the release
sentry-cli releases finalize "$RELEASE_NAME" --org "$ORGANIZATION_SLUG"

# Associate deployment with the release
sentry-cli releases deploys "$RELEASE_NAME" new -e "$ENVIRONMENT" --org "$ORGANIZATION_SLUG"

Then in my Github Actions, there is a step

- name: Create Sentry release
  env:
    SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN }}
  run: |
    npm install -g @sentry/cli@2.18.1
    sentry-cli login --auth-token $SENTRY_AUTH_TOKEN
    chmod +x createSentryRelease.sh
    ./createSentryRelease.sh $ENV

• I have the env the pipeline is running for stored in $ENV

Solution

For those still struggling with this, the solution is super simple but obscure:

1. Sentry > Settings > Integrations > GitHub

   

2. Configurations tab: create a configuration if your org isn't listed

3. Add the repository you are creating your release from

   

4. Re-run your job and it should succeed

I believe Github integration is a paid plan feature, so if you are on a free plan above solution might not work for you.

Thanks @SpencerKaiser, worked for me 👍 FYI for anyone reading this, I'm on the free plan and was able to integrate with my Github repo.
