Say, I wanna deploy my hugo blog to username.github.io, so I need to create a repo username.github.io, and create a .github/workflows/hugo.yml as documented in README? Or do I need to create another repo to host my hugo site, add .github/workflows/hugo.yml, and it automatically publish to username.github.io? Also, I don't see you mention GITHUB_TOKEN while some other actions use.

Is there a way I could set this up to automatically test my site against the latest version of hugo? I need GitInfo, so as I gathered from klakegg/docker-hugo I need to use the extended version, but I would really like to just test against the latest version without needing to manually update the pinned version I am using.

https://github.com/jasikpark/jasik-xyz/blob/master/.github/workflows/hugo.yml

name: Hugo

on:
  schedule:
    # runs daily at 3am
    - cron: '0 3 * * *'
  push:

jobs:
  build:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        image: [busybox, alpine]

    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
    - uses: actions/checkout@v1

    - name: hugo
      uses: klakegg/[email protected]
      with:
        image: ${{ matrix.image }}

I simply removed the versions option so that it will use the latest version, but it's not clear how to use the latest extended version... I would really appreciate your help!!

Also thanks so much for creating this action -- it was really helpful.

actions/checkout#149

I tried to use this action with percy-snapshot, and I ended up with .GitInfo.Date returning the wrong info, since checkout@v2 does a shallow clone, which apparently doesn't include the file history.

using

uses: actions/checkout@v2
  with:
    fetch-depth: 0

fixed the problem for me. my new Percy CI config looks like

name: Percy
on:
  push:
    branches:
    - "master"
  pull_request:
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v2
        with:
          fetch-depth: 0
      - name: Hugo
        uses: klakegg/[email protected]
        with:
          image: latest-ext
      - name: Percy
        uses: percy/[email protected]
        with:
          build-directory: "public"
        env:
          PERCY_TOKEN: ${{ secrets.PERCY_TOKEN }}

Can you include git in the Docker images, or is there a way we can get it installed before triggering hugo?

This is the option in the Hugo config that causes the error: https://gohugo.io/getting-started/configuration/#enablegitinfo

Thanks.
