Command used with act

act

Describe issue

The project itself is a submodule - the docker cp does not work since the .git file is a file (and not a directory) containing

gitdir: ../.git/modules/subproject

where subproject is the project in which act is ran.

Combined with setuptools-scm that tries to detect the version from the git tags, this gives the error

LookupError: setuptools-scm was unable to detect version

Just as a note (maybe to be included in the documentation), an easy workaround nowadays is to use the following code in pyproject.toml

[tool.setuptools_scm]
fallback_version = "0.0.0-dev"
