I think we should approach this differently, as this could hide other relevant errors. This check can be easily removed in the action (there is even a PR upstream, as jitterbit/get-changed-files@v1 behaves the same: jitterbit/get-changed-files#25). I personally try to rebase branches often (to avoid errors because not testing my changes with the latest code) and find this failure a nice reminder that I have to rebase. But as you said, it is not needed for the action to work. So, I can chery-pick the change in jitterbit/get-changed-files#25 and release Ana06/[email protected].

great if they fix it upstream, the arguments in the linked issue make sense. if the fix is ready soon I'm fine with that otherwise we can use this workaround to ease our development

I don't know if it will make it upstream. The reason why I released my own version is because the project didn't seem to be maintained. I have released Ana06/[email protected] which includes the fix. We are already using a fork of upstream, so let use my new version and change it to upstream if they release a version which include the same fixes.
Use Ana06/[email protected] which removes the _head commit is ahead of the base commit_ check. This made the action failed in not up-to-date branches (in which rebasing is needed). It supersedes mandiant#599
similar to the workaround in capa-rules
for instance observed in #598
