There was a problem hiding this comment.
Just double checking if there's any backwards incompatibility issues:
V6 Changes & Impact Analysis:
1. Credential Storage Change (The main "breaking" change in v6)
- What changed: Credentials now stored in
$RUNNER_TEMPinstead of local git config - Impact on this project: NONE ✅
- Why: All 4 uses of
actions/checkoutin this repo usepersist-credentials: false, meaning credentials are never persisted in the first place
2. Node.js 24 Runtime
- What changed: Action now runs on Node.js 24 instead of Node.js 20
- Impact: NONE ✅
- Why: This is a transparent runtime upgrade handled by GitHub Actions infrastructure
3. Runner Version Requirement (v2.329.0+)
- What changed: Minimum runner version needed for Docker container actions
- Impact: NONE ✅
- Why: This repo doesn't use any Docker container actions, and GitHub-hosted runners are already well above this version
The Key Safety Factor:
Looking at the actual usage in the codebase:
- uses: actions/checkout@v5 # becoming v6
with:
persist-credentials: false # ← This is the critical lineSince persist-credentials: false is consistently used everywhere, the v6 credential storage mechanism is never even activated. It's like having a feature you don't use get rewritten - it doesn't affect you.
Verification:
# I verified all checkout usages:
grep -A 3 "actions/checkout" .github/workflows/*.yml
# Result: ALL 4 instances use persist-credentials: falseBottom line: This is truly just a version number bump with zero behavioral impact on this repository. Safe to merge. ✅
