• github-token: GitHub token to use for authentication when pulling and pushing to the GitHub instance defined by github-server-url. By default this is unset. You can set this to github.token or a personal access token if you want to configure GitHub authentication globally.

• github-server-url: Server URL like https://github.example.org to use as the scope for the github-token. By default this uses github.server_url which is usually https://github.com. You shouldn't need to change this.

• user: A Name Here <emailhere@example.org> AiO user name & email string. This is a shortcut alternative to the independant user-name and user-email options that are also available. This defaults to @github-actions[bot]. You can set this to the special value github-actions to use the @github-actions[bot] user as the author, or the special me value to use the current github.actor user as the author.

• user-name: The name of the user. Should be left unspecified if user is specified.

• user-email: The email of the user. Should be left unspecified if user is specified.

• safe-directory: A multiline list of globs to add to the Git safe-directory list. Defaults to the current directory ..
