Pull Request Overview
This PR cannot be merged in its current state because the version v6.0.2 does not exist for the actions/checkout GitHub Action. The upgrade attempts to use version numbers that likely belong to a different dependency, which will cause all affected workflows to fail immediately upon execution. Additionally, a legitimate major version upgrade would require verifying that GitHub Runners are at version v2.329.0 or higher to support the new credential persistence mechanism used in newer releases of this action.
About this PR
- The versioning applied in this PR is fundamentally incorrect for
actions/checkout. This action is currently at major versionv4. It appears the version numbers for another dependency were mistakenly used, which will break the build. Please verify the target version and use a valid tag or commit SHA. - The transition to newer versions of this action requires Node.js 24 and a minimum Actions Runner version of v2.329.0. This is necessary because credentials are now persisted to $RUNNER_TEMP instead of the local git config. Ensure the self-hosted or managed runners meet these requirements to avoid authentication failures in Docker-based actions.
Test suggestions
- Verify that the MkDocs workflow successfully performs a checkout with 'submodules: true' and 'fetch-depth: 0' using a valid version.
- Confirm that the 'compress-images' job, which uses an external action, can still access the repository contents correctly given the change in credential persistence.
- Verify that the Vale workflow successfully checks out code with 'submodules: false' using a valid version.
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Verify that the MkDocs workflow successfully performs a checkout with 'submodules: true' and 'fetch-depth: 0' using a valid version.
2. Confirm that the 'compress-images' job, which uses an external action, can still access the repository contents correctly given the change in credential persistence.
3. Verify that the Vale workflow successfully checks out code with 'submodules: false' using a valid version.
