Assets are not created

[Mohamad Arab]

Hi,

Thanks for creating this action. Recently I tried to use this actions but the assets won't appear in releases. Here is my simple workflow:
https://github.com/boynux/squid-exporter/blob/master/.github/workflows/release.yml

For convenience:

...
release:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest

    steps:
      - name: Download binaries for release
        uses: actions/download-artifact@master
        with:
          name: binary
          path: bin/squid-exporter

      - name: Release latest version
        uses: svenstaro/upload-release-action@v2
        with:
          repo_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
          asset_name: squid-exporter
          file: bin/squid-exporter
          tag: unstable
          overwrite: true
          body: "pre-release"
          prerelease: true
...

The release is created, however the squid-exporter asset is not uploaded. There is no error in the workflow to debug.

Did you find a solution? It happens for me from a reusable workflow. The step says that it succeeded, with output:

Run svenstaro/upload-release-action@v2
  with:
    repo_token: ***
    file_glob: true
    file: libmavlink-dev_amd64
    asset_name: libmavlink-dev_amd64.deb
    tag: refs/tags/v1.0-1
    overwrite: true

However the artifacts are not published to the release on the calling repo. I would expect the action to fail if... well if it failed to upload the files. Not sure what's happening there...

I had a similar problem when trying to upload a directory bundle.
solved it in my case by adding a quick zip command, and then uploading the zip file.
