GitHub REST API checkout Windows long file path issues #1285

On a self-hosted runner, you can at least fix it with something like |

tried all the ways still facing the long path issue. |

Having same issue, for newer versions of Windows you can enable long paths like so: However in Windows Server 2012 r2 there is no option to do this. |

Similar to #1018, it would be nice to add this config directly to "checkout". |

Checking out PyTorch on Windows starts to fail after ROCm change #131004 in which one of the submodule path, `third_party/composable_kernel`, is getting too long https://hud.pytorch.org/pr/pytorch/pytorch/131004#31778700376 According to actions/checkout#1285, there is no fix in GHA checkout, but we can set `git config --system core.longpaths true` to enable long paths support in Git as a workaround. ### Testing Windows checkout is ok now https://github.com/pytorch/pytorch/actions/runs/11423112351/job/31781916540 Pull Request resolved: #138411 Approved by: https://github.com/wdvr

When running on a Windows self hosted runner and using the GitHub REST API checkout method, I'm running into problems with long file names causing the unzip step to file. A big part of this is the generated folder structure that checkout creates in the format of
<uuid>\<owner>-<repo>-<hash>. This creates 91 characters which is almost 35% of the Windows file path limit.It would be nice if we could at least customize this somehow to reduce the size of the folder path it unzips to.
