Current git version is 2.11.0, which is not supported in the v2 of actions/checkout. Specifically, when I use current version of rocker/verse in github actions using the latest version of checkout, it reports the following error:

[error]Minimum required git version is 2.18. Your git ('/usr/bin/git') is 2.11.0

Could this be because you opted for versioned Rocker image which is by design frozen in time?

edd@rob:~$ git --version
git version 2.20.1

I am sorry that I don't know what should be done, but I used this container: rocker/verse:latest.

cboettig commented 4 years ago

@psychelzh yeah, rocker/verse:latest is still based on debian:stretch, which was the latest stable release of Debian at the time R 3.6.1 was released, see: https://github.com/rocker-org/rocker-versioned/blob/master/VERSIONS.md

Good news is that with 3.6.2 release coming up, we'll move to the current stable, which is now buster (https://packages.debian.org/buster/git).

rocker/verse:devel is already on buster.
