15df936641 fix: use token for git auth inside Docker container
actions/checkout@v5 stores credentials in $RUNNER_TEMP which is not
mounted into the Docker container. Instead of requiring a pre-fetch
step in the workflow, we now inject the token into the remote URL
so git operations work inside the container.

Workflow no longer needs the 'Fetch base branch' pre-step.
