Switching default branch seems to have broken things

See original GitHub issue

Greetings folks, and thank you for a lovely GitHub Action! A few weeks ago I switched the default branch in my project from master to main. Everything with the transition seems to be working, except for code coverage.

My usage of the GitHub Action is pretty basic: https://github.com/JustinBeckwith/linkinator/blob/main/.github/workflows/ci.yaml#L31

Yet the dashboard, it shows nothing: https://app.codecov.io/gh/JustinBeckwith/linkinator/

This used to work perfectly fine when I was on the master branch, so I’m fairly certain it has something to do with that transition. Forgive me if this isn’t the right place to post, but it felt like a good place to start 😃

@helpermethod I made some changes to the GitHub Action that should make this unnecessary now.

@JustinBeckwith, I think you will need to add
with:
  fetch-depth: 2
here for actions/checkout

@thomasrockhu Is this still needed? Somehow I never had a problem with fetch-depth 1.
