Escaped newlines in error message #2
Description
I provided an invalid version and architecture to the setup-python action:
- name: 'Select Python version'
uses: actions/setup-python@master
with:
version: $PYTHON_VERSION
architecture: $PYTHON_ARCH
(I was attempting to make variable expansion happen.) The error message was surprising, with what appear to be escaped \r and \n:
##[error]Version $PYTHON_VERSION with arch $PYTHON_ARCH not found%0D%0AAvailable versions:%0D%0A%0D%0A
I would expect either actual newlines or some other type of whitespace, not %0D%0A.

Not seeing this error. I used environment variables to get the same type of error and this is happening:
We use pythons
.join(os.EOL)so there shouldn't be any weird escape characters, see here:setup-python/src/find-python.ts
Line 113 in 6e5196c
Maybe there were some weird things going on with how env variables were being passed in when this was first created but I haven't been able to repo this
