"File exists" errors when un-taring golangci-lint

See original GitHub issue

Follow-up to https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint-action/issues/135, https://github.com/golangci/golangci-lint-action/pull/156 and #221.

Using v2, I’m still seeing these errors:

- name: Lint
  uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v2
  with:
    version: v1.37

Example is in https://github.com/andig/evcc/pull/1075/checks?check_run_id=2655591730

Apart from fixing using tar- why not just use go install instead?

Can confirm, I’ve got the same issue: Error: /usr/bin/tar: ../../../../home/runner/go/pkg/mod/github.com/google/renameio@v1.0.1/doc.go: Cannot open: File exists Error: /usr/bin/tar: ../../../../home/runner/go/pkg/mod/github.com/google/renameio@v1.0.1/example_test.go: Cannot open: File exists
