Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/186

If I create a simple folder inside the cloned repository with the mkdir some_folder command and I try to re-run the script, it will fail with the following error :

mkdir: cannot create directory 'some_folder': File exists

Is this the expected behaviour ? Is there a way to clean the "cache" ?

Got the same problem. There should be flag for clearing the cache / rebuild the image on every run?

there is a volume created for each job. it should get cleared after each job, but seems there may be situations in which the volume isn't being removed

Seeing the same thing here (act 0.2.9 from homebrew).

If it helps, it also looks like an orphan container is left running after the build (which failed for me).
