git-ftp-action's Issues

@ sign in username

I can't be sure, but I'm struggling to get this work. And wondered if it's because I have an @ sign in my username. I'm using CPanel and it adds in @ signs for annoying reasons.

When it errors out, the @ sign seems to have been escaped as below?

syncroot option

Hi @sebastianpopp

Thanks a lot for this. Can you add the option so it takes syncroot as an option?

set folder permission and preserve it on ftp upload

After uploading files to server it changes folder permission to 700.
I want to keep it 755

fatal: Not a Git project? Exiting...

Following is my code block
`name: Encycode

push:
branches: [ master ]
pull_request:

jobs:
deploy:
name: Deploy

# Specifies a local directory to sync from as if it were the git project root path.
syncroot: .
# Additional options

exclude a file?

Very cool workflow

How can i exclude the github file from being deployed?

curl should support ssh

Looks like the curl version in the official registry is compiled without support for ssh, so for example sftp:// will throw an error Protocol 'sftp' not supported by curl. That should probably be fixed somehow.

alpine image instead of debian buster image

Debian buster docker image size is 114MB but alpine image size is less than 6MB.

$ docker images -a

debian buster 971452c94376 13 days ago 114MB
alpine 3.11 e7d92cdc71fe 7 weeks ago 5.59MB

I believe it is a good place to improve your solution.

Dockerfile

FROM alpine:3.11

COPY LICENSE README.md /

RUN apk add --no-cache bash curl git openssh

RUN curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git-ftp/git-ftp/master/git-ftp > /bin/git-ftp

RUN chmod 755 /bin/git-ftp

COPY entrypoint.sh /entrypoint.sh

ENTRYPOINT ["/entrypoint.sh"]

entrypoint.sh

#!/bin/sh -l

git-ftp push --auto-init --user $INPUT_USER --passwd $INPUT_PASSWORD $INPUT_URL

Unknown SHA1 object

Trying to implement this into our workflow but receiving the Unknown SHA1 object error when running checks. Everything is in sync between the local / remote repos (git-ftp.log hash on remote matches latest commit hash).

Any thoughts?

Git FTP fails to verify server fingerprint

I'm trying to use SFTP and it's failing due to not being able to verify the server fingerprint. I've verified this by manually running git ftp push with the --insecure flag and it works as intended.

Is there anyway that the --ignore flag could be implemented? Or better yet, a way to verify the server fingerprint?

How to Use SFTP with SSH?

Hi,

I'm wondering how to use SSH authentication. In git-ftp documentation it says to use --key options and specify the file.

But how do we specify file path in Github Action?

Thank you

Why only compatible with v1 of actions/checkout?

This project’s README contains a warning that this project is only compatible with v1 of actions/checkout. Could you please clarify: why is this the case, and what would need to be changed to make this action compatible with v2?

Add options for initialising a project

The action only works for deploying once git-ftp is deployed.
If the project hasn't been initialised with git ftp init or git ftp catchup
Would be good to allow these options through this action so the repos don't need to be manually initialised

FTP files changed or all files option

git diff --name-only HEAD~ gives you the list of files changed in the last commit, can you add the option of either files changed or all files (default)?
