WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE added automatically

[hitensam]

I was using the Azure/functions-action@v1 GitHub Action to deploy my function app. While reviewing the deployment logs, I noticed that this action automatically sets the WEBSITE_RUN_FROM_PACKAGE key, as seen in the GitHub Actions logs. Additionally, it also sets another environment variable: WEBSITE_ENABLE_SYNC_UPDATE_SITE.

Is there a way to prevent the action from automatically setting these variables and allow only user-specified environment variables to be configured?

Also, for me it additionally zip's the content. Not sure it decides to take a folder-based deployment, zip it, add this env variable and go. I thought it would determine based on what was set for the "package" what deployment type to do.

My deployment is a credentials-based deployment, not a publish profile based one. Would be nice if it abided by the same rules as a profile-based deployment and look at the package type.

This is a big deal for us as we use the IBM DB2 Connect package. That requires us to deploy functions in a folder-based state (not zip deploy).
