Description

What happened
Using mittwald/deploy-container-action@v1 fails with:

Unable to resolve action `mittwald/deploy-container-action@v1`, unable to find version `v1`

Steps to reproduce

  1. In a GitHub Actions workflow, add:

    - uses: mittwald/deploy-container-action@v1
    
  2. Run the workflow.

Expected
@v1 resolves to the latest v1.x release.

Actual
Resolution fails because the repository has patch tags like v1.0.x but no movable v1 tag or branch.

Workarounds

  • Pin to an explicit release:

    - uses: mittwald/deploy-container-action@v1.0.x
    
  • Or pin to a commit SHA.

Proposed fix
Create and maintain a moving major tag v1 that points to the latest v1.x release. This matches common Actions versioning practice and lets users safely depend on the major line.
