"git ls-files" is complaining that there isn't a git repository. Looking at the output of the checkout action (reproduced below) it appears it is extracting a tarball rather than using "git clone" because git is not available. I don't know what the best way to fix that is - I guess we could run "apt-get install git" before calling the checkout action.
