Action branch names with / broken in 2.273.4?

See original GitHub issue

As of today if our actions come from a branch on a repo with / in the branch name it fails with errors like this:

Unable to resolve action `Brightspace/third-party-actions@actions/checkout`, repository not found

We do this a lot because we mirror third-party-actions into branches in a central repo in our org (more context available in the README).

We’re seeing it fail on v2.273.4 runners, at least.

I see a lot of .Split( '/' ) in here, but I haven’t finished investigating: https://github.com/actions/runner/compare/v2.273.3...v2.273.4#diff-488a6cefa4a643b9314f32898b46937eR51

Sorry for the trouble, we identified a bug in a change we rolled out to the Actions Service that caused this and rolled it back. The runner is fine to continue using as-is. Thanks again for reporting this and let us know if you continue to see the issue!
