Fetching SPM from private repository when including CodeQL init step

[einar-notland]

Not sure what causes this. But our Xcode build job just gets stuck at SPM trying to fetch a framework from a private repository when having the CodeQL initialisation step in our workflow.

The SPM fetching works fine for workflows where we do not initialise CodeQL.

The workflow does not fail, it just gets stuck at the place where it is trying to fetch the private repository package. To allow it to fetch this private repo, I use this action to add the credentials: akiojin/store-git-credential-github-action@v1. And this credentials stuff works fine for our normal builds. But in our CodeQL workflow it fails the way I have described, just being stuck at the fetching step.

Anybody have any idea here?

Hi @einar-notland,

Thanks for your question. Is it possible to share the database creation and build tracer logs so we can diagnose what may cause the slowdown?

If this is a private project we may need to find a way to securely share these logs to ensure we do not disclose information.

Yeah, I could also try to just find the part you're interested in and try to anonymise it.

But how do I extract what you are interested in. Currently the logs for the workflow just show the SPM fetching logs, like this:
Fetching from https://github.com/[ORG]/[REPO]

Hi @einar-notland, let me inquire if we can provide you with interesting parts to look for in the logs and get back to you.
