Unrecognized named-value: 'github' error #782

Description

@dzcode

Describe the bug
When using the new v11.1 release, I'm getting an Unrecognized named-value: 'github' error when GHA is parsing the workflow file (in the Set Up Job step)

Workflow used
Provide a snippet of the workflow and/or a link to it (use the commit sha as the ref when you link it, so that it's not influenced by other changes). If you only share a section of the workflow, make sure it includes the step that uses the action!

name: Publish Packages

on:
  push:
    branches: ['main']

jobs:
  commit-test:
    name: Bump version
    runs-on: private
    steps:
      - name: Checkout
        uses: actions/checkout@v4

      - name: Make test file
        run: touch test_file.py
        shell: bash

      - name: Commit and push changes
        uses: EndBug/add-and-commit@v11.0.0
        with:
          add: 'test_file.py'
          message: 'chore: add test_file.py'
          author_name: 'GitHub Action'
          author_email: 'testemail@foo.bar'
          pull: '--rebase --autostash'
          push: true
          push_attempts: 3

Expected behavior
Action should load like normal without errors

Logs
Either provide a link to the action run or (if your repo is private) paste here the logs from the step that uses it. If you paste the logs, please use this template, and remember to paste the logs from all the different sections.
