## Problem
The `lint/emdash` check fails on Graphite-stacked PRs. See [this failed
run](https://github.com/coder/coder/actions/runs/28225390084/job/83616080375?pr=26650):
```
Base ref origin/graphite-base/26650 not found locally, fetching graphite-base/26650...
ERROR: could not fetch base ref origin/graphite-base/26650.
ERROR: could not determine base ref.
make: *** [Makefile:768: lint/emdash] Error 1
```
`scripts/check_emdash.sh` resolved its diff base by fetching
`origin/$GITHUB_BASE_REF` and computing a merge-base. Graphite sets
`GITHUB_BASE_REF` to a `graphite-base/<n>` ref that is ephemeral (it is
not reliably present on origin), so the fetch fails and the check errors
out instead of running.
## Fix
`actions/checkout` checks out the PR **merge commit**
(`refs/pull/<n>/merge`), whose **first parent (`HEAD^1`) is the exact
base commit GitHub merged against**. Diffing `HEAD^1` against the
checkout yields every change the PR makes against its base branch, for
normal and Graphite-stacked PRs alike. No base-branch fetch, no
merge-base computation, no `gh`-based deepen dance.
- `scripts/check_emdash.sh`: use `HEAD^1` (the PR base commit) as the
diff base in CI. Drops `resolve_merge_base` and `fetch_base_ref`. Emits
a clear error if `HEAD^1` is missing (checkout too shallow).
- `.github/workflows/ci.yaml`: bump the `lint` job checkout to
`fetch-depth: 2` so `HEAD^1` is present with no runtime fetch.
Local dev behavior (merge-base against `origin/main`) is unchanged.
## Verification
- `make lint/emdash`, `make lint/shellcheck`, `make
lint/actions/actionlint` pass.
- Simulated the CI path with `GITHUB_BASE_REF` set: the check resolves
to `HEAD^1` without fetching and still flags an added line containing an
emdash.
<details>
<summary>Why the merge commit's first parent</summary>
For a `pull_request` checkout of `refs/pull/<n>/merge`:
- `HEAD` = GitHub's synthetic PR merge commit
- `HEAD^1` = the exact base commit used for the merge
- `HEAD^2` = the PR head commit
`git diff HEAD^1 HEAD` is the full-tree diff from the base snapshot to
the merged result, i.e. all of the PR's changes against its base. This
is immutable and always local (given depth >= 2), unlike base branch
refs which are mutable and, for Graphite stacks, ephemeral.
