checkout github sources using git

This action is a replacement of standard github’s actions/checkout action. This action is implemented as composite action, so it does not require node.js interpreter. The standard actions/checkout is written in javascript and sometimes it is not possible to have node12 injected to the container.

prerequisites

• git must be available. So, make sure git is installed before calling this action.
