Build failure for release as unable to read username

Hello,

I tried to use the git hub action with the following configuration

     - name: Publish artifact on GitHub Packages
        run: mvn -B clean deploy -DskipTests
        env:
          GITHUB_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
      - name: Configure Git user
        run: |
          git config user.email "actions@github.com"
          git config user.name "GitHub Actions"
      - name: Make a release
        uses: qcastel/github-actions-maven-release@master
        with:
          release-branch-name: "master"
          git-release-bot-name: "release-bot"
          git-release-bot-email: "release-bot@example.com"
          access-token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_ACCESS_TOKEN }}
          maven-args: "-Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -DskipTests -DskipITs -Ddockerfile.skip -DdockerCompose.skip"

but it fails with a fatal error as shown below.

Do mvn release:perform with arguments -Dmaven.javadoc.skip=true -DskipTests -DskipITs -Ddockerfile.skip -DdockerCompose.skip

It does make a new release though. How can one make it succeed?

Thanks a lot for your time and efforts in advance!
