Getting this while checking out branch.
It suddenly started failing few min back.

Fetching the repository
  /usr/bin/git -c protocol.version=2 fetch --no-tags --prune --progress --no-recurse-submodules --depth=1 origin +refs/heads/<redacted>*:refs/remotes/origin/<redacted>* +refs/tags/<redacted>*:refs/tags/<redacted>*

          ref: ${{ env.COMMIT }}

COMMIT: ${{ github.sha }}

Looks like this was intermittent and worked after couple of retries. Would it be still possible to look into whether this is flaky or something is wrong?

Experiencing the same behaviour but it's not intermittent. We see this constantly on our scheduled pipelines.

Hitting this on scheduled too, using actions/checkout@v4, did you ever find any solution?
