# Checkout V2
This action checks-out your repository under `$GITHUB_WORKSPACE`, so your workflow can access it.
2020-01-02 22:40:10 +02:00
Only a single commit is fetched by default, for the ref/SHA that triggered the workflow. Set `fetch-depth` to fetch more history. Refer [here](https://help.github.com/en/articles/events-that-trigger-workflows) to learn which commit `$GITHUB_SHA` points to for different events.
2020-01-02 22:40:10 +02:00
The auth token is persisted in the local git config. This enables your scripts to run authenticated git commands. The token is removed during post-job cleanup. Set `persist-credentials: false` to opt-out.
When Git 2.18 or higher is not in your PATH, falls back to the REST API to download the files.

# What's new
2020-01-02 22:40:10 +02:00
- Improved performance
- Fetches only a single commit by default
2019-12-03 18:26:12 +02:00
- Script authenticated git commands
2020-01-02 22:40:10 +02:00
- Auth token persisted in the local git config
2020-03-20 04:17:25 +02:00
- Supports SSH
2019-12-03 18:26:12 +02:00

- No longer detached HEAD when checking out a branch
- Improved layout
2019-12-12 20:49:26 +02:00
- The input `path` is always relative to $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
- Aligns better with container actions, where $GITHUB_WORKSPACE gets mapped in
- Fallback to REST API download
- When Git 2.18 or higher is not in the PATH, the REST API will be used to download the files
2020-01-02 22:40:10 +02:00
- When using a job container, the container's PATH is used

# Usage
<!-- start usage -->
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
2019-12-03 23:47:19 +02:00
# Repository name with owner. For example, actions/checkout
# Default: ${{ github.repository }}

# Otherwise, defaults to `master`.

## Checkout a different branch
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
ref: my-branch
```
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
## Checkout HEAD^
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
fetch-depth: 2
- run: git checkout HEAD^
```
## Checkout multiple repos (side by side)
```yaml
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
path: main
- name: Checkout tools repo
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
repository: my-org/my-tools
path: my-tools
```
## Checkout multiple repos (nested)
```yaml
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Checkout tools repo
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
repository: my-org/my-tools
path: my-tools
```
## Checkout multiple repos (private)
```yaml
- name: Checkout
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
path: main
- name: Checkout private tools
uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
repository: my-org/my-private-tools
token: ${{ secrets.GitHub_PAT }} # `GitHub_PAT` is a secret that contains your PAT
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
path: my-tools
```
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
> - `${{ github.token }}` is scoped to the current repository, so if you want to checkout a different repository that is private you will need to provide your own [PAT](https://help.github.com/en/github/authenticating-to-github/creating-a-personal-access-token-for-the-command-line).
## Checkout pull request HEAD commit instead of merge commit
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
with:
ref: ${{ github.event.pull_request.head.sha }}
```
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
## Checkout pull request on closed event
```yaml
on:
pull_request:
branches: [master]
types: [opened, synchronize, closed]
jobs:
build:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
```
## Fetch pull request base-ref in addition to merge commit (for diffing)
```yml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- name: Fetch base_ref HEAD
run: git fetch --depth=1 origin +refs/heads/${{github.base_ref}}:refs/remotes/origin/${{github.base_ref}}
- run: git diff origin/${{github.base_ref}}..HEAD
```
2019-12-13 23:39:47 +02:00
## Fetch all tags
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- run: git fetch --depth=1 origin +refs/tags/*:refs/tags/*
```
## Fetch all branches
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- run: |
git fetch --no-tags --prune --depth=1 origin +refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*
```
## Fetch all history for all tags and branches
```yaml
- uses: actions/checkout@v2
- run: |
git fetch --prune --unshallow
```
