 - Script authenticated git commands
-  - Persists `with.token` in the local git config
+  - Persists the input `token` in the local git config
   - Enables your scripts to run authenticated git commands
   - Post-job cleanup removes the token
-  - Coming soon: Opt out by setting `with.persist-credentials` to `false`
+  - Opt out by setting the input `persist-credentials: false`
 - Creates a local branch
   - No longer detached HEAD when checking out a branch
   - A local branch is created with the corresponding upstream branch set
 - Improved layout
-  - `with.path` is always relative to `github.workspace`
+  - The input `path` is always relative to $GITHUB_WORKSPACE
-  - Aligns better with container actions, where `github.workspace` gets mapped in
+  - Aligns better with container actions, where $GITHUB_WORKSPACE gets mapped in
+- Fallback to REST API download
+  - When Git 2.18 or higher is not in the PATH, the REST API will be used to download the files
