Release hotfix: set GH_REPO so gh release can find the repo#23
Merged
Conversation
The v0.1.0 release run completed all the substantive steps — 4 binary
builds, SBOM, SHA256SUMS, SLSA build provenance, cosign keyless sig —
but the final "Create or update GitHub Release" step failed with:
failed to run git: fatal: not a git repository (or any of the
parent directories): .git
The wohl checkout lives at `wohl/` (so the relay sibling can co-locate
at `../relay`), so $GITHUB_WORKSPACE itself has no `.git`. `gh release
view/create/upload` falls back to a git remote lookup and errors out.
Setting `GH_REPO: ${{ github.repository }}` tells the gh CLI which
repo to act on without needing git context.
Re-running the workflow via workflow_dispatch on the existing tag
v0.1.0 will redo the full pipeline — fresh OIDC, fresh sigs, fresh
attestations — and upload everything. No retag needed.

What broke
The v0.1.0 release run completed all the substantive work cleanly:
gh release create/upload:Why
The wohl checkout lives at
wohl/(so the relay sibling can co-locate at../relay).$GITHUB_WORKSPACEitself has no.git, sogh release view/create/uploadcan't infer the repo via the normal git remote lookup.Fix
GH_REPO: ${{ github.repository }}in the step's env. One line, with a comment so the next person doesn't re-trip on it.After merge
workflow_dispatchon the existing tagv0.1.0re-runs everything. Each run gets fresh OIDC, fresh attestations, fresh cosign signatures — tied to the new run, not the failed one. Tag itself stays.🤖 Generated with Claude Code
