workflow depends on its target repo rather than on cloned repo

See original GitHub issue

Bug description

Hi! I created a workflow that pulls the code from some private repository and uploads assets to the public one (the repository workflow is running on). the problem is that some git commands in unity-builder reffers to workflow’s base repository commits

How to reproduce

create repository like game-builds (in my case https://github.com/neonknights/scheme-website)
create another one with game itself (private)
in game-build repo create new workflow (like that: https://github.com/neonKnights/sCHEMe-website/blob/main/.github/workflows/release-package.yml)
in workflow, checkout code from game repo
run unity build
workflow fails https://github.com/neonKnights/sCHEMe-website/runs/5437854707?check_suite_focus=true

Expected behavior

unity-builder should depend on currently cloned repo

@webbertakken thank you for your answer! The failure says:

Warning: fatal: c09a448c944ac1649eaafe09dd70eb4691214ed6 is neither a commit nor blob

Error: Failed to run "git describe --long --tags --always c09a448c944ac1649eaafe09dd70eb4691214ed6".
 In-command error caught: Error: The process '/usr/bin/git' failed with exit code 128

c09a448c944ac1649eaafe09dd70eb4691214ed6 is top commit of my sCHEMe-website repository, but the other one is checked out
