changed files no committed

Version of the Action
v4

Describe the bug
it seems the action does not commit all changed files (files in subfolders are left behind).

the action properly detects that the files contain changes, as can be seen in the github action log:

.. only M phpstan-baseline.neon is committed, but not M scripts/phpstan-baseline.neon

To Reproduce
workflow step:

      - name: Commit changed files
        uses: stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action@v4
        with:
          commit_message: Apply phpstan-baseline changes
          branch: ${{ github.head_ref }}
          file_pattern: '*.neon' 

Expected behavior
since the pattern is *.neon I would expect the action to commit all changed *neon files, no matter in which directory they are contained

Additional context
I am pretty sure this worked in the past, and it seems to have regressed in a recent release?

[stefanzweifel]

The responsible line for adding files to the commit has not been updated in the last 15 months.

However, git-status and git-add differs as $INPUT_FILE_PATTERN is in quotes in git-status; but not in git-add.
If I remember correctly, I did this on purpose to prevent globbing. 🤔

Have to do some manual testing.

[stefanzweifel]

I've added a test in dce7e85 to cover this scenario.

To commit all files, it seems you have to add a pattern to explictly look for neon-files in sub folders. (Not sure what the correct technical term is here)

In your example it would be *.neon **/*.neon

  - name: Commit changed files
    uses: stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action@v4
    with:
      commit_message: Apply phpstan-baseline changes
      branch: ${{ github.head_ref }}
-     file_pattern: '*.neon' 
+     file_pattern: '*.neon **/*.neon' 

Could you give this a try?

[staabm]

Thx for the investigation

Should file_pattern: '**.neon' also work then?

[stefanzweifel]

@staabm Yeah that seems to work too.

Triggered a test run in a test repo with file_pattern: '**.php':

PHP files in the root and in a nested folder have been commited: stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action-demo-app@0e9ba3a

[staabm]

ok cool, thank you.

from my POV this issue can be closed
