CI fails for external contributors

[ManonMarchand]

I'm in holidays so won't do it before one week, but CI is broken so we can't merge #112 yet.

The CI seems to be fixed, I let you re-open if it is not the case.

It was a super strange bug, but seems transitory. Linking an open issue for documentation purposes in case it happens again: actions/checkout#1326

[ManonMarchand]

It happened again, and for an other new contributor

Could it be because of

with:
  ref: ${{ github.head_ref }}

in our actions setup?
