New Error Entries — Strategy 1 Round 255 (GitHub Issues Mining)

Sourced from high-engagement open issues in actions/cache and actions/checkout.

Entries Added

ID File Source
caching-artifacts-150 alpine-busybox-tar-p-flag-unsupported.yml actions/cache#1765, #352
runner-environment-497 checkout-git-config-global-auth-placeholder-fail.yml actions/checkout#2449
runner-environment-498 checkout-v6-credentials-docker-container-action-not-available.yml actions/checkout#2359 (13 comments)

Entry Summaries

ca-150actions/cache fails in Alpine containers because BusyBox tar does not support the -P (absolute path) flag used by the action. Error: tar: unrecognized option: P / Tar failed with error: exit code 1. Fix: apk add --no-cache tar before cache step.

re-497 — When GIT_CONFIG_GLOBAL is set in the runner environment (common self-hosted runner practice), it overrides HOME when git writes credentials. This causes actions/checkout's auth placeholder to be written to the wrong config file, then fail to be found during token substitution. Error: Unable to replace auth placeholder in .../.gitconfig. Fix: unset in checkout step env block.

re-498actions/checkout@v6 stores credentials via the runner's host-side credential store, which is not mounted inside subsequent Docker container actions. Git auth fails inside the container with "terminal prompts disabled". The v6-beta release notes claimed Docker container support with runner v2.329.0+, but this remains an open bug (June 2026). Fix: use actions/checkout@v4 in workflows with Docker container actions.

Dedup Verified

30+ dedup checks across all 8 categories before writing. All 3 entries confirmed new.
