Error: Failed to install 'covr' from GitHub: #83
Description
What happened?
Hi Team,
We are using in Gihub data residency account which is ghe.com. When we try to use this action, this action is expecting the token for the Gihub.com account and it's not working with GHE.com github token. We are getting 401 error message while downloading the dependency. Please find the below error message.
For re-producing the issue, please use github data residency account and use this action, token created in the github GHE account.
