Run multi line script in gitlab-ci.yml

Question

I am having difficulty with my pipeline I'm trying to configured, based off of this document - link

I am trying to integrate the example pipeline code into my current one, I have got this far:

default:
  image:
    name: hashicorp/terraform:light
    entrypoint:
      - /usr/bin/env
      - "PATH=/usr/local/sbin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/sbin:/bin"

stages:
  - validate
  - yor


validate:
  stage: validate
  before_script:
    - rm -rf .terraform
    - terraform --version
    - terraform init
    - export AWS_DEFAULT_REGION=eu-west-1
  script:
    - terraform validate -json
  only:
    - merge_requests    

run-yor:
  stage: yor
  image: ruby:2.5
  script:
    - git checkout ${CI_COMMIT_SHA}
    - export YOR_VERSION=0.1.62
    - wget -q -O - https://github.com/bridgecrewio/yor/releases/download/${YOR_VERSION}/yor-${YOR_VERSION}-linux-amd64.tar.gz | tar -xvz -C /tmp
    - /tmp/yor tag -d .
  after_script:
    - |
      cd $CI_PROJECT_DIR
      git status
      lines=$(git status -s | wc -l)
      if [ $lines -gt 0 ];then
        echo "committing"
        git config --global user.name "$AUTO_COMMITTER_NAME"
        git config --global user.email "$AUTO_COMMITTER_EMAIL"
        echo ".yor_plugins" >> .gitignore
        git add .
        git commit -m "YOR: Auto add/update yor.io tags."
        git push -o ci.skip "https://${GITLAB_USER_NAME}:${GIT_PUSH_TOKEN}@${CI_REPOSITORY_URL#*@}"
      else
        echo "no updated resources, nothing to commit."
      fi
  only:
    - merge_requests

However, when running I receive this error in the output:

Running after_script
00:01
Running after script...
$ cd $CI_PROJECT_DIR # collapsed multi-line command
HEAD detached at c839d93
Changes not staged for commit:

no changes added to commit (use "git add" and/or "git commit -a")
committing
*** Please tell me who you are.

  git config --global user.email "[email protected]"
  git config --global user.name "Your Name"
to set your account's default identity.
Omit --global to set the identity only in this repository.
fatal: empty ident name (for <>) not allowed

It seems like it is not parsing the multi line script correctly and I cannot figure out how exactly to get this working. I also see in the original script on the linked page, the script is called differently, I'll be honest I don't fully understand how they are calling the script.

Any help would be great.

The # collapsed multiline command can be prevented with

  variables:                                                                                                                                                   
    FF_SCRIPT_SECTIONS: "true"
