I am interested in using this Action, but I'd like to have complete control of the commit message of the resulting commit. The commit_message input described in https:/peaceiris/actions-gh-pages#%EF%B8%8F-set-custom-commit-message allows setting a prefix of the commit message but the following code subsequently unconditionally appends the 40-character commit hash from the source commit onto that:

const hash = `${process.env.GITHUB_SHA}`;
const baseRepo = `${github.context.repo.owner}/${github.context.repo.repo}`;
if (externalRepository) {
msg = `${msg} ${baseRepo}@${hash}`;
} else {
msg = `${msg} ${hash}`;
}

Would it be possible to expose control over the full message in a way that disables appending that hash?

Tentative proposal that would work for my use case, but open to others:

uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
with:
  full_commit_message: ...

The current specification is for using GitHub's ability to display commit hash information like the following.

Is there a problem with including a commit hash that fired a deployment in a commit message? Can you explain the problem in detail?
If solving that problem will improve anything, I will be happy to do so.

If we add that new feature, I'm going to implement it in the following way.

- uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
  with:
    github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    full_commit_message: ${{ github.event.head_commit.message }}

I am including the hash myself, except it is not at the end and it uses rev-parse --short to keep the total length under control for command line users where GitHub's displaying doesn't play a role.

# steps:

- id: rev
  run: echo ::set-output name=rev::$(git rev-parse --short HEAD)
- uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
  with:
    commit_message: Docs for ${{ steps.rev.outputs.rev }}: ${{ github.event.head_commit.message }}

The v3.6.0 has been released and the v3 tag also updated. Could you try it?

- uses: peaceiris/actions-gh-pages@v3
  with:
    github_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
    full_commit_message: ${{ github.event.head_commit.message }}

Here is an example log.
