@xakraz thank you the contribution. Could you please describe the use cases in the PR as well.

The owner and repo selection part is quite straightforward but the CWD is a little confusing. The workdir switching should be done before invoking the action and the "workspace" input should be sufficient for action execution in the nested directory.

Hi @ryancyq , thank you for reviewing and considering my PR 🙏🏻

Our current use case is the following:

• A team maintains a project as a private repository of our organization with some sources and other content
• During their "release" process, they want to publish some sources to another public repository
• To do so they:
  • Trigger a GH Workflow with a tag push
  • The workflow clones/checkouts the "source" private repository related to the tag push event
  • It builds some other sources
  • It clones/checkout the "target" public repository in a specific directory within the private repository GH workflow workspace
  • Copy the built files to the checkout public repository directory
  • Commit + tag + push the changes on the "target" public repository

At first, I tried to use the "workspace" input parameter of your GHA but I didn't manage to make it work as expected.
I faced issues with the files filter and getBlob() functions if I remember correctly.

Or maybe I missed something 😅

What do you mean by ?

The workdir switching should be done before invoking the action
