`mapfile: command not found` under macOS about get-changed-files HOT 2 OPEN

The problem is that macOS has bash 3 and mapfile was introduced in bash 4.

I found a solution, add this step in front in your workflow:

    - if: contains( matrix.os, 'macos')
      name: Install bash 5.0 under macOS for mapfile
      run: |
        brew install bash
        sudo mv /usr/local/bin/bash /bin/bash

sudo mv /usr/local/bin/bash /bin/bash is needed because you cannot switch the default shell in a GitHub Workflow and you cannot switch the shell of a step to something else than the predefined shells.

For whoever arrived here via a search:

Github actions now support custom shells:
