When a GitHub runner is running in Systemd serivce context that is using DynamicUser=true setting the os.userInfo().homedir call returns /(root). This happens because the Node call uses libuv which calls getpwuid() that uses the NSS(Name Service Switch) which provide home path from /etc/passwd. Because of this the action fails with error like this: Error: ENOENT: no such file or directory, mkdir '//.ssh' Allowing users to override it is the simplest fix, for example like this: home-path: $HOME Signed-off-by: Jakub Sokołowski <jakub@status.im>
