Steps to reproduce (in my case a NuGet action)  
  
1) Rename the action  
2) Copy the action  
3) Paste the action  
4) Try to save the stages  
  
You get exceptions.

Note that when I don’t edit the action before, it also warns me “note: password fields were not copied”. That is not the case when I edited upfront of copying.

Hi Geert, thank you for the information here. We have implemented a fix for this one which will be available in the next release.   
  
 Thanks.
