 :warning: it is highly related to the `git_remote_pull_params` config parameter and won't work with the default.
 You need to change the default one e.g. to `git_remote_pull_params: --allow-unrelated-histories --strategy=recursive --no-edit`.
 
+## GHES and custom runners
+
+Some notes if you use GitHub Enterprise Server (GHES) and/or custom runners.
+The action script is based on bash. That means your runner must be able to run bash scripts.
+Furthermore you need to have the following command line tools installed:
+
+* ssh
+* [GitHub cli][gh-cli]
+* git
+* optional (dependent the features you are using)
+  * [git lfs][git-lfs] if you are using the lfs functionality
+  * [yq][yq] if you are using the hook functionality
+  * gpg if you are using the git signing functionality
+
+Furthermore most likely you have a custom domain name. Therefore you should configure the `hostname` GitHub action parameter.
+
+### Remark
+
+:whale: There is also a docker image available which has all needed tools installed. This is helpful e.g. if you are not able to use a remote action.
+The idea is to use the [docker action][action-docker]
+
+* [GitHub registry][github-repo]
+* [Dockerhub registry][dockerhub-repo]
+
 ## Troubleshooting
 
 * refusing to allow a GitHub App to create or update workflow `.github/workflows/******.yml` without `workflows` permission
