From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> It is the custom to follow minor updates of GitHub Actions automatically, by using the suffix `@v1`. Actions' maintainers will then update that `v1` ref to point to the newest. However, for `microsoft/setup-msbuild`, 889cacb6897 (ci: configure GitHub Actions for CI/PR, 2020-04-11) uses a very specific `@v1.0.0` suffix. In this instance, that is a problem: should `setup-msbuild` release a new version that intends to fix a critical bug, we won't know it, and we won't use it. Such a scenario is not theoretical. It is happening right now: https://github.blog/changelog/2020-10-01-github-actions-deprecating-set-env-and-add-path-commands Let's simplify our setup, allowing us to benefit from automatically using the newest v1.x. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@xxxxxx> --- GitHub workflow: automatically follow minor updates of setup-msbuild This patch was based on dd/ci-swap-azure-pipelines-with-github-actions, but due to changes outside of Git, that GitHub workflow does not even begin to work anymore. Therefore, the patch is now actually based on master.
