not used? Or needed to change value on the step "build"?

[ethouris]

I wonder if there is any possible external file to provide the specific values. OTOH it will be rarely changed.

[yomnes0]

It's the first way that came to my mind to transfer the tag version to the checkout action. It seems like "traditional" env variables are not shared between steps, and I couldn't get the ref from checkout@v3 to work properly by directly parsing the version there

[ethouris]

If not, then we better have a script to apply appropriate changes, or generate this file.

[yomnes0]

Could be done by using a github secret that would be updated at each tag generation
