+In default mode, the Action expects to work on [tags](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/git/tags?apiVersion=2022-11-28) in order to access a commits list.
+If no tags are found, the fallback is to determine the current commit sha that triggered the workflow using the default variable provided by GitHub, `$GITHUB_SHA`. For more information, see [Events that trigger workflows](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/events-that-trigger-workflows).
+
+> [!Important]
+> By default `EchoesHQ/deployments-action` does not require to be used in conjonction with the [`actions/checkout` Action](https://github.com/actions/checkout) because it can fallback to `$GITHUB_SHA`.
+> However if you are planning to work with [tags](https://docs.github.com/en/rest/git/tags?apiVersion=2022-11-28) make sure to set the appropriate `actions/checkout` options such as `fetch-depth` and `fetch-tags` to fine tuning to your need.
+
+> [!Warning]
+> Not all commits are of interest. Indeed `Deployments` are used by Echoes to extract some critical information such as Teams and Echoes Labels. Could it be a list of commits extracted from tags, extracted from the `$GITHUB_SHA` or manually provided, those have value for Echoes only if they are attached to a PR that was labeled with [Echoes labels](https://docs.echoeshq.com/categorizing-work). The commits would therefore be properly associated to the work they hold for the team they represent.
