insufficient permission for adding an object to repository database .git/objects

Hello,

Does anyone know how to resolve this error when this action tries to push commit?

Error: Error: error: insufficient permission for adding an object to repository database .git/objects error: modules/create_budget_alert/USAGE.md: failed to insert into database error: unable to index file 'modules/create_budget_alert/USAGE.md' fatal: updating files failed

Running git add . results in the same thing.

I’m not bothered to fix it at this point, I’m moving all of my projects to Sourcehut and their CI is much simpler to work with. I think you can probably close this issue though, as it doesn’t seem to be a problem with your action.
