Command used with act
gh act -W print_context.yml -j print-context-and-exitDescribe issue
git@github.com:/sh41/act.git is a valid remote in git, but it is not parsed correctly by act. See https://stackoverflow.com/a/70330178 for a discussion of the origins of this syntax.
In the log output you can see:
| GITHUB_REPOSITORY=/sh41/act
| GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER=
which should be:
| GITHUB_REPOSITORY=act
| GITHUB_REPOSITORY_OWNER=sh41

I think this can be fixed by changing this line:
https://github.com/nektos/act/blame/3d71542867d7cbdac6a75e540be6f64362e94de2/pkg/common/git/git.go#L29
to:
githubSSHRegex = regexp.MustCompile(`github.com(?::/?|/)(.+)/(.+?)(?:.git)?$`)and for GHE:
https://github.com/nektos/act/blame/3d71542867d7cbdac6a75e540be6f64362e94de2/pkg/common/git/git.go#L212
to
gheSSHRegex := regexp.MustCompile(fmt.Sprintf(`%s(?::/?|/)/(.+?)(?:.git)?$`, githubInstance))In both cases
[:/] = either a : or a /
is replaced by:
(?::/?|/) = non-capturing group of either a : optionally followed by a / OR just / on it's own.
