[idea] Go all in on composite features

[jcbhmr]

this is an idea that i wanted to share 😅

i know the - uses: GuillaumeFalourd/[email protected] is not ideal, but I wanted rsync to get the idea across. I'm sure there's a cross-platform Windows-compatible way like:

- run: cp -r "${INPUT_PATH%/}" ../wiki
  shell: bash #remember shell=bash works on windows via git-bash

🤔 Yeah, interesting idea. I like cloning to /tmp, but not sure about Windows compatibility. I wonder about runner.temp.
I think that ideally actions/checkout#603 would be implemented, and we could utilize a bare clone, setting the --work-tree to the wiki directory.

We could also utilize the gh 😉

i think this idea has served its purpose
I didn't really expect it to go anywhere and it didn't disappoint!

for actions/checkout: utilizing gh to handle the checkout seems to work quite well
for stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action: i don't think we need all the options that https://github.com/stefanzweifel/git-auto-commit-action has tbh 🤣 just commit message and maybe author fields and thats it.
