There was a problem hiding this comment.
Looks good.

Background
In
build-cd, I require knowing whether a given git ref is a branch, tag or commit (as a laterspack repo updatecommand has the flags--commit,--branchand--tagrather than something nice like--ref).However, this need seems to be a bit more universal than just
build-cd, so I've turned it into an action under this repository, instead!The PR
get-git-ref-infoaction that checks out a given repository, then looks if a given ref is a branch, tag or commit, and returns the equivalent SHA if it exists.Testing
