Potential fix for https://github.com/Unix-User/facechess/security/code-scanning/6

To fix the issue, we need to ensure that the user-controlled input (github.event.head_commit.message) is handled securely. The best practice is to set the untrusted input to an intermediate environment variable and use shell syntax to reference the variable, avoiding direct interpolation of the input in the shell command. Additionally, we should ensure that the sanitization process is robust and covers all potential injection vectors.

Steps to fix:

  1. Store the github.event.head_commit.message in an environment variable using GitHub Actions syntax.
  2. Use shell syntax ($VAR) to reference the environment variable in the shell command.
  3. Ensure that the sanitization process is robust and does not rely solely on sed.
