UiPath Custom Activity dependency output argument not using correct type

Hi,

I have been building a custom dependency to try and port an equivalent for some features of the git bash software as UiPath activities, so they can be used in UiPath without needing to use the command prompt, or requiring any external software to be installed (whether it be GIT bash, or an alternative desktop GIT software)

The issue I am facing is that the activity code (written in C#) shows the output of the activity as being the correct type and allows me to demonstrate this. (I have added code to go through the output list to log the author and author date, to make sure that the commit type variable does support the attributes)

However when being run in studio I can see the console messages as traces, showing that the attributes do exist for the type of variable, however I don’t seem to be able to see this when trying to use the variable in UiPath, I am only able to see the commit hash.

Any ideas what may be causing this would be much appreciated.
