Hey, I was trying to create a workflow that compiles a typst pdf and then push it to the branch, so i wrote this workflow:
- name: Commit and push PDF
if: gitea.event_name == 'push'
run: |
git remote set-url origin https://Gitea_Acha_Actions:${{secrets.ACCESS_TOKEN}}@fakegitea/me/fakerepo.git
git config --global user.name "fake_username"
git config --global user.email "fake_username@fake_email"
git add -f 1-fake.pdf
git add -f 2-fake.pdf
git add -f 3-fake.pdf
git commit --author="fake_username < fake_username@fake_email>" -m "docs: actualizar PDF compilado [skip ci]" || echo "No hay cambios para committear"
git push
It worked, but then I added branch protection, now it doesnt.

So I tried creating user fake_username@fake_email and using the access token generated, but still get that error.
