Bump GitHub Actions off the deprecated Node 20 runtime - #42
Merged
Conversation
actions/checkout v4 and setup-dotnet v4 both target Node 20, which GitHub is
already forcing onto Node 24 with a deprecation warning on every run. That shim
will not last.
actions/checkout v4 -> v7
actions/setup-dotnet v4 -> v6
Three and two majors respectively, so the release notes were read rather than
assumed. Nothing in them affects these workflows:
- checkout v5 moves to Node 24 and needs runner 2.327.1 or newer; the hosted
runners are well past that.
- checkout v6 changes where credentials are persisted, which matters only to
workflows that read them back.
- checkout v7 converts to ESM and blocks checking out a fork PR under
pull_request_target or workflow_run; neither trigger is used here.
- setup-dotnet v5 and v6 are Node 24 runtime updates. Every input used here
still exists in v6.
