Hello there,

I’m trying to setup a `run-name` in my workflow file. For that I have defined this:

```auto
name: Build & Publish Docker image
on: [push]
run-name: Build & Publish Docker image for "${{ gitea.event.head_commit.message }}"
jobs:
  build:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - name: Set up Docker
        uses: docker/setup-buildx-action@v2

      - name: Login to Registry
        uses: docker/login-action@v2
        with:
          registry: some.registry.to.log.into
          username: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_USERNAME }}
          password: ${{ secrets.REGISTRY_TOKEN }

```

But my runs continue to only have the commit message as title. Am I doing something wrong or is it not supported yet ?

hi,

same here: my yaml file looks like the demo one:

```auto
name: Gitea Actions Demo
run-name: ${{ gitea.actor }} is testing out Gitea Actions
on: [push]

jobs:
  Explore-Gitea-Actions:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - run: echo " The job was automatically triggered by a ${{ gitea.event_name }} event."

```

Name of the job (`Explore-Gitea-Actions`)is well found in action’s run details

But neither `name` nor `run-name` are found in the runs list, rather commit message

Note: running gitea 1.20.2
