Any idea what's wrong?

[akashdhawade2005]

I believe the issue is because of the null value in COMMIT ID.

[tdlm]

Having same issue. Anyone fix it?

Same problem here... It worked fine like 3-4 months ago Commit ID is not null on my side but i have the same output: Can not use local Git repository, seems not to be in sync with current commit or does not exist;

[aaronware]

This might be due to referencing the action incorrectly. I had the error happen when I was accidentally having the action fire on push to main however the actions steps were referencing ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.sha }} based on the default examples. When I switched that up to not hook into the on push event it resolved my issue
