Refs #153.
This PR adds a new
disable_globbingoption to the Action. This will prevent the shell from expanding filenames.You can find more details about globbing in bash here:
-f)Why
As reported in #153, in certain scenarios the Action fails to commit changed files. A test has been added to cover this edge case in e610a51.
My first instinct was to disable globbing globally for all executions. But after reading more about
set -o noglobI've decided to hide this feature behind a new option.My gut tells me, that disabling globbing for all would lead just to more problems. 🤷
Bash Script for local testing
I've used the follwing shell script to test the in #153 reported edge case.
