Summary

Same fix as apify/apify-client-python#741 — the SDK workflows have the identical bug.

When manual_release_docs.yaml is invoked with a commit SHA as ref (from doc_release_post_publish in on_master.yaml or from manual_release_stable.yaml), actions/checkout leaves the repo in detached HEAD state and the hand-rolled Commit the updated package.json and lockfile step's git push fails with fatal: You are not currently on a branch.

The same latent bug exists in manual_version_docs.yaml's EndBug/add-and-commit step (no new_branch set). Neither has fired yet because no feat/fix/perf/refactor/style commit has landed on master since the reusable-workflow extraction merged.

Fix

  • Replace the hand-rolled git block in manual_release_docs.yaml with EndBug/add-and-commit@v10.
  • Set new_branch: ${{ github.event.repository.default_branch }} in both workflows — EndBug does not handle detached HEAD by itself (its default push is git push origin --set-upstream with no refspec, which fails the same way). Setting new_branch makes it create/checkout a local default branch at current HEAD before committing.

When manual_release_docs.yaml is invoked with a commit SHA as ref (e.g. from doc_release_post_publish in on_master.yaml or from the stable release pipeline), actions/checkout leaves the repo in a detached HEAD state and the hand-rolled git push fails with "fatal: You are not currently on a branch." Switch to EndBug/add-and-commit with new_branch set to the default branch, and apply the same fix to manual_version_docs.yaml where the same latent bug existed.
