…sed in workflows Dependabot will periodically check the versions of all actions used in the repository's workflows. If any are found to be outdated, it will submit a pull request to update them. NOTE: Dependabot's PRs will occasionally propose to pin to the patch version of the action (e.g., updating `uses: foo/bar@v1` to `uses: foo/[email protected]`). When the action author has provided a major version ref, use that instead (e.g., `uses: foo/bar@v2`). Dependabot will automatically close its PR once the workflow has been updated.

Management of the actions dependencies of the repository's GitHub Actions workflows is done manually. Outdated action versions will only be discovered if a review is done by a maintainer, which is not likely to happen often. The workflows do follow the practice of using the major version ref of the action whenever one is provided, which means that the latest version of the action is used up until such time as there is a major version bump. But after that the workflow will be using an outdated action.
Dependabot will periodically check the versions of all actions used in the repository's workflows. If any are found to
be outdated, it will submit a pull request to update them.
NOTE: Dependabot's PRs will occasionally propose to pin to the patch version of the action (e.g., updating
uses: foo/bar@v1touses: foo/[email protected]). When the action author has provided a major version ref, use that instead(e.g.,
uses: foo/bar@v2). Dependabot will automatically close its PR once the workflow has been updated.More information:
