ci: stop Dagger from shallow-cloning the working tree#947
Merged
Conversation
In GitHub Actions pull request builds, Dagger's telemetry git-label collection runs `git fetch --depth 1` against the working tree whenever GITHUB_REF is a refs/pull/ ref, which turns the checkout into a shallow clone. Once shallow, `git merge-base origin/main HEAD` finds no common ancestor and the commitlint task (--from=origin/main) fails on every pull request. Most dagger invocations already prefix GITHUB_REF= to suppress this; a few were missing it. Prefix the remaining calls so Dagger never shallow-fetches the host repository.
