Permissions setting is only needed if your repo has restricted permissions on the GITHUB_TOKEN
.
In order to create a tag reference, we need the write permissions on contents
& actions
. Otherwise, we'll get a "Resource not accessible by integration" error when creating a tag ref using github.rest.git.createRef
from actions/github-script
.
You can confirm your repo's workflow permissions in
Settings > Code and automation > Actions > General > Workflow permissions
It's "Read repository contents and packages permissions" by default. If it's "Read and write permissions", you can just remove the permissions
setting in YAML file.
