`tag_exists_error: false` still errors if tag already exists on remote. about action-create-tag HOT 4 CLOSED

@brandon-kyle-bailey Thanks for your bug report. That, indeed, shouldn't happen. It looks like

https://github.com/rickstaa/action-create-tag/blob/07b918ecbf94359b859f25f7a70553a84e804923/entrypoint.sh#L28C8-L30

doesn't flag the tag as already existing. I will investigate this issue later this week 👍🏻.

Hi @brandon-kyle-bailey! Apologies for the delay, but I finally got around to investigating the issue you raised. I took a look at the provided action recipe, and after attempting to reproduce the problem, it seems I'm not encountering the issues you described. The workflow run here appears to be successful on my end 🤔.

A few potential culprits crossed my mind that might be causing your problem:

1. Insufficient permissions: It's possible that your action might be suffering from a lack of permissions to create a tag. Double-check if the action has the necessary permissions.

2. Output Quirks: Ensure that the output from steps.package-version.outputs.new-version is formatted correctly. An incorrect format could cause problems.

3. Tag Protection Troubles: Do you have any tag protection rules in place? These rules might prevent your action from creating tags.

I will close this issue for now. Feel free to comment below if there is anything else you'd like me to dive into!
