Update-project-version fails when a commit hash is used

[dixonjoel]

Bug Report

I ran update-project-version and it failed. We suspect it is because of using a commit hash and not a branch name.

Repro or Code Sample

I don't know why this failed for the couple of releases I did. I'm calling the update-project-action here.

Expected Behavior

Create a PR in the repo for bumping the project version.

Current Behavior

Failure. Here's some log info. See this run.

Possible Solution

@bkeryan suggests this:

I think it could use
git branch -a --contains
to find potential branches
it probably ought to try main first
