branch	Alpine branch (aka release) to install (e.g. `v3.15`, `latest-stable`, `edge`).	no	latest-stable
extra-keys	A list of paths of additional trusted keys (for installing packages from the extra-repositories) to copy into /etc/apk/keys/. The paths should be relative to the workspace directory (the default location of your repository when using the checkout action).	no	""

volumes	A list of directories on the host system to mount bind into the chroot. You can specify the source and destination path: `<src-dir>:<dest-dir>``. The `<src-dir>` is an absolute path of existing directory on the host system, `<dest-dir>` is an absolute path in the chroot (it will be created if doesn't exist).
