Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/166

Using the relative path references:
https://help.github.com/en/actions/reference/workflow-syntax-for-github-actions#example-using-action-in-the-same-repository-as-the-workflow

The inputs are not evaluated.
(No check for required, no renaming, no defaults)

Tried in this repo.
github.com/vsoch/cred-action@3ecdb0d8fb

Where the real action passes, but act -j smoke-env fails.
