Remove checkout credential helper before release push#17
Merged
Conversation
actions/checkout with persist-credentials: true (the default) configures a git credential helper that serves GITHUB_TOKEN for all github.com requests. This overrides the app token set via git remote set-url, causing the push to use GITHUB_TOKEN instead of the app token. The app token is needed to bypass branch protection rulesets. Fix by unsetting the extraheader config before setting the remote URL.
