how to git config before git checkout

[jtmoon79]

In my rust workflow yaml file, I have uses: actions/checkout@v2. I would like to run a git config command before the code checkout occurs. How can I do that?

In other words, what would I change here?

  job_rust_msrv_os:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest, windows-latest]
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: cargo build --verbose

You should be able to run git config --global ... and that should be picked up by the actions/checkout step.

In my case, this looked like

  job_rust_msrv_os:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest, windows-latest]
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: cargo build --verbose
      - ``  job_rust_msrv_os:
    strategy:
      matrix:
        os: [ubuntu-latest, macos-latest, windows-latest]
    runs-on: ${{ matrix.os }}
    steps:
      - run: |
          git config --global core.protectNTFS false
      - uses: actions/checkout@v2
      - run: cargo build --verbose
