Is it possible to get unstaged / modified files?

[shinebayar-g]

I've an use case like this. cdk8s cli generates yaml files based on source code change. I'm running cdk8s command on each commit to master branch to ensure there's no configuration drift. Is it possible to use this action to know which files are modified?
Based on the commit I may or may not get any changed files. If this action is able to detect which files are changed, that'd be helpful. Right now it looks like it's not detecting changed files during the workflow. My workflow looks like this:

- uses: actions/checkout@v3
  with:
    fetch-depth: 2

- run: cdk8s synth

- name: Is there a change?
  id: detect-manifest-change
  uses: tj-actions/changed-files@v35
  with:
    files: manifests/**

Currently even though cdk8s synth is modifying files in manifests/ folder, action isn't seeing the change.

@shinebayar-g Yes I believe the action you’ll need is https://github.com/tj-actions/verify-changed-files which detects unstaged files.
