Branch creation (PR) failing at the end for Repository Scans, for a monorepo.

[imranzunzani]

On a monorepo with the following frogbot-config.yml (names redacted with *) :

- params:
    git:
      repoName: test-scan
      branches:
        - main
    scan:
      projects:
        - workingDirs:
            - apps/***/***
            - apps/***/***
            - apps/***/***
            - apps/***/***
            - apps/***/***
            - apps/***/***
        - pathExclusions:
            - "*node_modules*"
            - "*target*"
            - "*venv*"
            - "*test*"
            - "*analytics*"

I get the following errors at the end:

Could you please help with understanding the problem here?

Hello @imranzunzani I wanted to give you an update on this matter. As @attiasas mentioned, this is a known issue and we were working on a fix. We discovered the issue is a bit tricker than we thought and requires several changes in order to be fixed. We are actively working on making those improvements and to enable Frogbot and 'audit' command to handle more complex project structures. Please follow our future releases :)

Thanks @eranturgeman. Let me loop in @Avi706 here as well.

@Avi706 , FYC. This is in relation to monorepo structures.
