 **`fail-on-missing-target`** is an optional boolean (defaulted to _true_) to control whether the action should fail if the `file` is not found in the case of `target` being a release, or if `artifact-name` is not found in the case of `target` being a branch or ref (which includes the situation where the branch or ref does not exist). Other failures, for example, the `file` not being found in the `artifact-name`, are still considered failures even if this is set to false.
 
+**`wait-for-exact-target`** is an optional boolean (defaulted to _false_) that controls behavior when `target` is a branch or commit and _any_ workflow has not completed at the given target. If `false`, the action will then look at the parent commit's workflows and use artifacts from them (and if that commit's workflows haven't completed, its parent, and so on). If `true`, the action will wait indefinitely for all workflows to complete (use with care!).

 ### Outputs
 
 **`downloaded-file`** is the filename of the downloaded file, or an empty string if an error occurred.
