'--new-from-rev=master' flag not taking effect

We run this in some of our projects, and thank you all for the tool; it's fantastic!

I am noticing that the issues.new-from-rev: master setting in our .golangci.yml configuration file isn't effective, and this warning is in our GH Actions log:

level=warning msg="[runner] Can't process result by diff processor: can't prepare diff by revgrep: could not read git repo: error executing git diff \"master\" \"\": exit status 128"

Does it seem like the Action can't find the current revision hash to diff against master?

Use only-new-issues: true in your action yml instead. I had your exact issue, using only-new-issues: true will accomplish the same effect as issues.new-from-rev: master

      - name: golangci-lint
        uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v1
        with:
          version: v1.26
          only-new-issues: true

OK, thanks @CyrusJavan!
