It appears to be fixed in this marvinpinto/actions repo. The action that mirrors to the marvinpinto/action-automatic-releases repo seems to be broken. Clone down both repos, navigate to the ./packages/automatic-releases folder in the actions repo and run the yarn commands from the workflow. It will create a dist folder under ./packages/automatic-releases. Grab the contents of index.js and copy if over to the corresponding index.js file in action-automatic-releases repo and that seems to do the trick. Host the fixed version of actions-automatic-releases in your own github environment and you should be good to go.

I was finally able to create a fork here https://github.com/mathieucarbou/marvinpinto-action-automatic-releases containing the node version update + the set-output fix.

I had to download the zip file of the master branch... git was not able to clone.
