Dependabot (which my voice-typing software frequently mis-translates to "the
panda bot" 😉) is enabled in Git for Windows' fork of the git/git repository
to lighten the maintenance burden a little bit. Frequently, the updates are
not actually for Git for Windows' patches on top of git/git, but apply
directly to git/git.
Here is the latest batch of those updates, with heavily augmented commit
messages.
Johannes Schindelin (4):
ci: bump microsoft/setup-msbuild from v2 to v3
ci: bump actions/{upload,download}-artifact to v7 and v8
ci: bump actions/github-script from v8 to v9

The v2 of `microsoft/setup-msbuild` runs on Node.js 20, which GitHub
is phasing out of the Actions runners. v3 is a minimal release whose
only substantive change is moving the action's runtime to Node.js 24,
so that our Visual Studio build jobs keep working once Node.js 20 is
removed from the runners.
The risk of this bump is very low: v3 contains no functional changes
to the action itself -- it merely adds `msbuild.exe` to `PATH`, with
no change to command-line flags, inputs, outputs, or default tool
resolution. The only precondition is a recent-enough Actions Runner,
which the github.com-hosted runners already satisfy.

`actions/upload-artifact` and `actions/download-artifact` are tightly
coupled: the upload action writes artifact archives in a format that
the download action then reads. Because of this coupling, the two
actions should always be bumped together so that the artifact format
contract between them is satisfied.
All of our `actions/upload-artifact` uses are still on v5, with one
stray v4 occurrence. Keeping them on these versions would leave the
artifact-upload steps running on Node.js 20, which GitHub is phasing
out, and would eventually cause all upload steps to fail.
Going from v5 directly to v7 folds in two release bumps:
- v6 switches the action's default runtime from Node.js 20 to
Node.js 24 (v5 had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted
to Node 20). This is the main motivation for bumping now: it gets
us off the deprecated runtime.
- v7 adds two opt-in features: direct (unzipped) single-file uploads
via a new `archive: false` parameter, and an internal conversion of
the action to ESM to match the updated `@actions/*` packages.
Risk analysis: we never pass `archive`, so the zip-as-usual behavior
is unchanged. We also do not `require('@actions/*')` from any calling
workflow, so the ESM migration cannot affect us. The upload steps we
care about -- tracked files/build artifacts and failing-test
directories -- keep the same inputs (`name`, `path`) and outputs, so
the diff is purely the `@vN` identifier. The main precondition is a
recent Actions Runner (>= 2.327.1), which the github.com-hosted
runners used by our CI already satisfy.
While at it, align the one remaining `@v4` occurrence with the rest
so that every `upload-artifact` step uses the same version.
See also:
- Release notes: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/releases
- Compare: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/compare/v5...v7
We use `actions/download-artifact` to pass build artifacts between
the "windows-build" / "vs-build" / "windows-meson-build" jobs and
their corresponding test jobs. All callers are currently on v6;
bumping to v8 keeps this action in lockstep with the `upload-artifact`
bump above.
What v7 and v8 change:
- v7 switches the default runtime from Node.js 20 to Node.js 24 (v6
had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted to Node 20).
This is the main motivation: it gets us off the deprecated runtime.
- v8 makes three further changes:
* The package is converted to ESM (invisible to workflow authors).
* The action now checks the `Content-Type` header before
attempting to unzip a download, so that directly-uploaded
(unzipped) artifacts from `upload-artifact` v7 are downloaded
correctly.
* The `digest-mismatch` behaviour is changed from warn-and-
continue to a hard failure by default.
Risk analysis: defaulting hash-mismatch to a hard failure is
strictly safer than the previous warn-and-continue behaviour -- a
mismatch points to real corruption or tampering and should stop the
run. We download archives that the same workflow just uploaded, on
the same runner fleet, so false positives are not expected. Our
usage is limited to the `name` and `path` inputs, which are
unchanged between v6 and v8, so the diff is purely the `@vN`
identifier.

The only use we have of `actions/github-script` is the "skip if the
commit or tree was already tested" step in `main.yml`, which checks
whether an identical tree-SHA was already built successfully. It
currently pins v8; v9 is the latest release.
What v9 changes:
- The `ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID` environment variable is now
appended to the HTTP user-agent string. This is transparent to
our script.
- A new injected `getOctokit` factory lets scripts create
additional authenticated clients in the same step without
importing `@actions/github`. We do not use it.
- Two breaking changes affect scripts that either call
`require('@actions/github')` (fails at runtime, because
`@actions/github` v9 is now ESM-only) or that shadow the
implicit `getOctokit` parameter via `const`/`let` (syntax
error). Our script does neither -- it only uses the pre-supplied
`github` REST client and `core` helpers -- so the upgrade is
safe.
Risk analysis: the step is advisory. It sets `enabled=' but skip'`
as an optimization to avoid re-running CI on a tree that was already
tested successfully. Even if the v9 upgrade broke the script, the
surrounding `try { ... } catch (e) { core.warning(e); }` block would
degrade it to a warning and CI would still run normally. In practice
the script continues to work identically on v9.

Every workflow currently pins `actions/checkout` to v5, which was
introduced primarily to move to the Node.js 24 runtime. v6 is the
next release and worth picking up so we stay on a maintained version
of the action.
The one behaviorally interesting change in v6:
`persist-credentials` now stores the helper credentials under
`$RUNNER_TEMP` instead of writing them directly into the local
`.git/config`. Two implications follow:
1. In the normal case this is an unambiguous improvement -- the
token no longer lands in `.git/config`, reducing the risk of
inadvertently leaking it through workspace archiving
(`upload-artifact` snapshots, cache entries, core dumps, ...).
2. Docker container actions require an Actions Runner of at least
v2.329.0 to find the credentials in their new location. The
github.com-hosted runners our CI uses are already past that
version, so this does not affect us. Downstream users running
self-hosted runners may need to update them before adopting
this version of the action.
Risk analysis: our checkout steps either check out the default
repository (no special credential requirements) or, in the `vs-build`
job, explicitly set `repository: microsoft/vcpkg` and
`path: compat/vcbuild/vcpkg`. Neither case relies on the precise
location of the persisted credentials -- subsequent steps interact
with the API via the runner-provided `GITHUB_TOKEN` directly -- so
the v6 credential-storage change is transparent to our workflows.
The diff is purely the `@vN` identifier; there are no input or
output changes.

The v2 of `microsoft/setup-msbuild` runs on Node.js 20, which GitHub
is phasing out of the Actions runners. v3 is a minimal release whose
only substantive change is moving the action's runtime to Node.js 24,
so that our Visual Studio build jobs keep working once Node.js 20 is
removed from the runners.
The risk of this bump is very low: v3 contains no functional changes
to the action itself -- it merely adds `msbuild.exe` to `PATH`, with
no change to command-line flags, inputs, outputs, or default tool
resolution. The only precondition is a recent-enough Actions Runner,
which the github.com-hosted runners already satisfy.

`actions/upload-artifact` and `actions/download-artifact` are tightly
coupled: the upload action writes artifact archives in a format that
the download action then reads. Because of this coupling, the two
actions should always be bumped together so that the artifact format
contract between them is satisfied.
All of our `actions/upload-artifact` uses are still on v5, with one
stray v4 occurrence. Keeping them on these versions would leave the
artifact-upload steps running on Node.js 20, which GitHub is phasing
out, and would eventually cause all upload steps to fail.
Going from v5 directly to v7 folds in two release bumps:
- v6 switches the action's default runtime from Node.js 20 to
Node.js 24 (v5 had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted
to Node 20). This is the main motivation for bumping now: it gets
us off the deprecated runtime.
- v7 adds two opt-in features: direct (unzipped) single-file uploads
via a new `archive: false` parameter, and an internal conversion of
the action to ESM to match the updated `@actions/*` packages.
Risk analysis: we never pass `archive`, so the zip-as-usual behavior
is unchanged. We also do not `require('@actions/*')` from any calling
workflow, so the ESM migration cannot affect us. The upload steps we
care about -- tracked files/build artifacts and failing-test
directories -- keep the same inputs (`name`, `path`) and outputs, so
the diff is purely the `@vN` identifier. The main precondition is a
recent Actions Runner (>= 2.327.1), which the github.com-hosted
runners used by our CI already satisfy.
While at it, align the one remaining `@v4` occurrence with the rest
so that every `upload-artifact` step uses the same version.
See also:
- Release notes: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/releases
- Compare: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/compare/v5...v7
We use `actions/download-artifact` to pass build artifacts between
the "windows-build" / "vs-build" / "windows-meson-build" jobs and
their corresponding test jobs. All callers are currently on v6;
bumping to v8 keeps this action in lockstep with the `upload-artifact`
bump above.
What v7 and v8 change:
- v7 switches the default runtime from Node.js 20 to Node.js 24 (v6
had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted to Node 20).
This is the main motivation: it gets us off the deprecated runtime.
- v8 makes three further changes:
* The package is converted to ESM (invisible to workflow authors).
* The action now checks the `Content-Type` header before
attempting to unzip a download, so that directly-uploaded
(unzipped) artifacts from `upload-artifact` v7 are downloaded
correctly.
* The `digest-mismatch` behaviour is changed from warn-and-
continue to a hard failure by default.
Risk analysis: defaulting hash-mismatch to a hard failure is
strictly safer than the previous warn-and-continue behaviour -- a
mismatch points to real corruption or tampering and should stop the
run. We download archives that the same workflow just uploaded, on
the same runner fleet, so false positives are not expected. Our
usage is limited to the `name` and `path` inputs, which are
unchanged between v6 and v8, so the diff is purely the `@vN`
identifier.

The only use we have of `actions/github-script` is the "skip if the
commit or tree was already tested" step in `main.yml`, which checks
whether an identical tree-SHA was already built successfully. It
currently pins v8; v9 is the latest release.
What v9 changes:
- The `ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID` environment variable is now
appended to the HTTP user-agent string. This is transparent to
our script.
- A new injected `getOctokit` factory lets scripts create
additional authenticated clients in the same step without
importing `@actions/github`. We do not use it.
- Two breaking changes affect scripts that either call
`require('@actions/github')` (fails at runtime, because
`@actions/github` v9 is now ESM-only) or that shadow the
implicit `getOctokit` parameter via `const`/`let` (syntax
error). Our script does neither -- it only uses the pre-supplied
`github` REST client and `core` helpers -- so the upgrade is
safe.
Risk analysis: the step is advisory. It sets `enabled=' but skip'`
as an optimization to avoid re-running CI on a tree that was already
tested successfully. Even if the v9 upgrade broke the script, the
surrounding `try { ... } catch (e) { core.warning(e); }` block would
degrade it to a warning and CI would still run normally. In practice
the script continues to work identically on v9.

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>
Every workflow currently pins `actions/checkout` to v5, which was
introduced primarily to move to the Node.js 24 runtime. v6 is the
next release and worth picking up so we stay on a maintained version
of the action.
The one behaviorally interesting change in v6:
`persist-credentials` now stores the helper credentials under
`$RUNNER_TEMP` instead of writing them directly into the local
`.git/config`. Two implications follow:
1. In the normal case this is an unambiguous improvement -- the
token no longer lands in `.git/config`, reducing the risk of
inadvertently leaking it through workspace archiving
(`upload-artifact` snapshots, cache entries, core dumps, ...).
2. Docker container actions require an Actions Runner of at least
v2.329.0 to find the credentials in their new location. The
github.com-hosted runners our CI uses are already past that
version, so this does not affect us. Downstream users running
self-hosted runners may need to update them before adopting
this version of the action.
Risk analysis: our checkout steps either check out the default
repository (no special credential requirements) or, in the `vs-build`
job, explicitly set `repository: microsoft/vcpkg` and
`path: compat/vcbuild/vcpkg`. Neither case relies on the precise
location of the persisted credentials -- subsequent steps interact
with the API via the runner-provided `GITHUB_TOKEN` directly -- so
the v6 credential-storage change is transparent to our workflows.
The diff is purely the `@vN` identifier; there are no input or
output changes.

The l10n workflow uses `mshick/add-pr-comment` to post git-po-helper
reports as comments on translation pull requests. It was still pinned
to v2, which runs on Node.js 20. GitHub is phasing out the Node.js 20
runtime on Actions runners, so staying on v2 will eventually cause the
"Create comment in pull request for report" step to fail.
The sole breaking change in v3 is the switch from Node.js 20 to
Node.js 24 (https://github.com/mshick/add-pr-comment/releases/tag/v3.0.0).
The action's inputs and outputs are unchanged, so the upgrade is a
drop-in replacement. Subsequent v3.x releases added new opt-in
features (message truncation, retry with exponential backoff, file
attachments, commit comment support, "delete on status") but none of
them affect existing callers that do not opt in.

Dependabot (which my voice-typing software frequently mis-translates to "the
panda bot" 😉) is enabled in Git for Windows' fork of the git/git repository
to lighten the maintenance burden a little bit. Frequently, the updates are
not actually for Git for Windows' patches on top of git/git, but apply
directly to git/git.
Here is the latest batch of those updates, with heavily augmented commit
messages.
Changes since v2:
* Included the version bump for the freshly-updated
setup-git-for-windows-sdk GitHub Action (which now also requires Node.JS
24, at long last).
Changes since v1:
* Also bump mshick/add-pr-comment to the newest major version.

The v2 of `microsoft/setup-msbuild` runs on Node.js 20, which GitHub
is phasing out of the Actions runners. v3 is a minimal release whose
only substantive change is moving the action's runtime to Node.js 24,
so that our Visual Studio build jobs keep working once Node.js 20 is
removed from the runners.
The risk of this bump is very low: v3 contains no functional changes
to the action itself -- it merely adds `msbuild.exe` to `PATH`, with
no change to command-line flags, inputs, outputs, or default tool
resolution. The only precondition is a recent-enough Actions Runner,
which the github.com-hosted runners already satisfy.

`actions/upload-artifact` and `actions/download-artifact` are tightly
coupled: the upload action writes artifact archives in a format that
the download action then reads. Because of this coupling, the two
actions should always be bumped together so that the artifact format
contract between them is satisfied.
All of our `actions/upload-artifact` uses are still on v5, with one
stray v4 occurrence. Keeping them on these versions would leave the
artifact-upload steps running on Node.js 20, which GitHub is phasing
out, and would eventually cause all upload steps to fail.
Going from v5 directly to v7 folds in two release bumps:
- v6 switches the action's default runtime from Node.js 20 to
Node.js 24 (v5 had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted
to Node 20). This is the main motivation for bumping now: it gets
us off the deprecated runtime.
- v7 adds two opt-in features: direct (unzipped) single-file uploads
via a new `archive: false` parameter, and an internal conversion of
the action to ESM to match the updated `@actions/*` packages.
Risk analysis: we never pass `archive`, so the zip-as-usual behavior
is unchanged. We also do not `require('@actions/*')` from any calling
workflow, so the ESM migration cannot affect us. The upload steps we
care about -- tracked files/build artifacts and failing-test
directories -- keep the same inputs (`name`, `path`) and outputs, so
the diff is purely the `@vN` identifier. The main precondition is a
recent Actions Runner (>= 2.327.1), which the github.com-hosted
runners used by our CI already satisfy.
While at it, align the one remaining `@v4` occurrence with the rest
so that every `upload-artifact` step uses the same version.
See also:
- Release notes: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/releases
- Compare: https://github.com/actions/upload-artifact/compare/v5...v7
We use `actions/download-artifact` to pass build artifacts between
the "windows-build" / "vs-build" / "windows-meson-build" jobs and
their corresponding test jobs. All callers are currently on v6;
bumping to v8 keeps this action in lockstep with the `upload-artifact`
bump above.
What v7 and v8 change:
- v7 switches the default runtime from Node.js 20 to Node.js 24 (v6
had preliminary Node 24 support but still defaulted to Node 20).
This is the main motivation: it gets us off the deprecated runtime.
- v8 makes three further changes:
* The package is converted to ESM (invisible to workflow authors).
* The action now checks the `Content-Type` header before
attempting to unzip a download, so that directly-uploaded
(unzipped) artifacts from `upload-artifact` v7 are downloaded
correctly.
* The `digest-mismatch` behaviour is changed from warn-and-
continue to a hard failure by default.
Risk analysis: defaulting hash-mismatch to a hard failure is
strictly safer than the previous warn-and-continue behaviour -- a
mismatch points to real corruption or tampering and should stop the
run. We download archives that the same workflow just uploaded, on
the same runner fleet, so false positives are not expected. Our
usage is limited to the `name` and `path` inputs, which are
unchanged between v6 and v8, so the diff is purely the `@vN`
identifier.

The only use we have of `actions/github-script` is the "skip if the
commit or tree was already tested" step in `main.yml`, which checks
whether an identical tree-SHA was already built successfully. It
currently pins v8; v9 is the latest release.
What v9 changes:
- The `ACTIONS_ORCHESTRATION_ID` environment variable is now
appended to the HTTP user-agent string. This is transparent to
our script.
- A new injected `getOctokit` factory lets scripts create
additional authenticated clients in the same step without
importing `@actions/github`. We do not use it.
- Two breaking changes affect scripts that either call
`require('@actions/github')` (fails at runtime, because
`@actions/github` v9 is now ESM-only) or that shadow the
implicit `getOctokit` parameter via `const`/`let` (syntax
error). Our script does neither -- it only uses the pre-supplied
`github` REST client and `core` helpers -- so the upgrade is
safe.
Risk analysis: the step is advisory. It sets `enabled=' but skip'`
as an optimization to avoid re-running CI on a tree that was already
tested successfully. Even if the v9 upgrade broke the script, the
surrounding `try { ... } catch (e) { core.warning(e); }` block would
degrade it to a warning and CI would still run normally. In practice
the script continues to work identically on v9.

Every workflow currently pins `actions/checkout` to v5, which was
introduced primarily to move to the Node.js 24 runtime. v6 is the
next release and worth picking up so we stay on a maintained version
of the action.
The one behaviorally interesting change in v6:
`persist-credentials` now stores the helper credentials under
`$RUNNER_TEMP` instead of writing them directly into the local
`.git/config`. Two implications follow:
1. In the normal case this is an unambiguous improvement -- the
token no longer lands in `.git/config`, reducing the risk of
inadvertently leaking it through workspace archiving
(`upload-artifact` snapshots, cache entries, core dumps, ...).
2. Docker container actions require an Actions Runner of at least
v2.329.0 to find the credentials in their new location. The
github.com-hosted runners our CI uses are already past that
version, so this does not affect us. Downstream users running
self-hosted runners may need to update them before adopting
this version of the action.
Risk analysis: our checkout steps either check out the default
repository (no special credential requirements) or, in the `vs-build`
job, explicitly set `repository: microsoft/vcpkg` and
`path: compat/vcbuild/vcpkg`. Neither case relies on the precise
location of the persisted credentials -- subsequent steps interact
with the API via the runner-provided `GITHUB_TOKEN` directly -- so
the v6 credential-storage change is transparent to our workflows.
The diff is purely the `@vN` identifier; there are no input or
output changes.

The v1 of `git-for-windows/setup-git-for-windows-sdk` runs on
Node.js 20, which GitHub is phasing out of the Actions runners.
v2 moves the action to Node.js 24 so that the CI jobs relying on
a Git for Windows SDK keep working once Node.js 20 is removed.
The risk is very low: v2 contains no functional changes to the
SDK setup itself, only the runtime upgrade. The action still
provisions the same minimal SDK and exposes the same outputs.
The sole precondition is a recent Actions Runner (>= 2.327.1),
which the github.com-hosted runners already satisfy.

The l10n workflow uses `mshick/add-pr-comment` to post git-po-helper
reports as comments on translation pull requests. It was still pinned
to v2, which runs on Node.js 20. GitHub is phasing out the Node.js 20
runtime on Actions runners, so staying on v2 will eventually cause the
"Create comment in pull request for report" step to fail.
The sole breaking change in v3 is the switch from Node.js 20 to
Node.js 24 (https://github.com/mshick/add-pr-comment/releases/tag/v3.0.0).
The action's inputs and outputs are unchanged, so the upgrade is a
drop-in replacement. Subsequent v3.x releases added new opt-in
features (message truncation, retry with exponential backoff, file
attachments, commit comment support, "delete on status") but none of
them affect existing callers that do not opt in.
