I'm in the process of moving a working CircleCI workflow over to Github Actions.
I'm running:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
container:
image: google/cloud-sdk:latest
I run the following command:
echo ${{ secrets.GCLOUD_API_KEYFILE }} > ./gcloud-api-key.json
Before running this command, gcloud-api-key.json has not yet been created. This command works in CircleCI but in Github Actions I get the error:
/__w/_temp/asd987as89d7cf.sh: 2: /__w/_temp/asd987as89d7cf.sh: type:: not found
Does anyone know what this error means?

You should use run: echo "$GITHUB. REPOSITORY" and run: echo "$GITHUB. REPOSITORY_OWNER" to see them directly on your workflow. Tip: You can identify most of the variables that can be shown with echo through the Github Context using run: echo "$GITHUB_CONTEXT" in your workflow.
When echoing something to a file, >> appends to the file and > overwrites the file. From the example you posted, a log directory is created and then *. log is put into log/. gitignore so that no log files are committed to git.
GITHUB_ENV. The path on the runner to the file that sets environment variables from workflow commands. This file is unique to the current step and changes for each step in a job.
A GitHub Action to push any local file changes, including new files, back to supplied branch name. This action is useful to put after other actions that modify files in the local checkout that you'd then like to persist back into the repository.
The reason was because my secret key was more then 1 line long. Once I made it one line it worked.

In order to use secrets which contain more than just one line (like secret jsons) one has to save the base64 encoded secret in Github which makes it one line. On linux the encoding is done via:
cat mysecret.json | base64
Then in the action you need to decode it using
echo ${{ secrets.YOUR_SECRET }} | base64 -d > secret.json
