[eclipse.org-committers] Deprecation Warning for GitHub actions [upload|

[Thomas Neidhart <thomas.neidhart@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear Committers,

projects hosted on GitHub and utilizing actions should take note that GitHub has issued a deprecation notice for some commonly used actions.

* actions/upload-artifact

* actions/download-artifact

The following versions are deprecated and will stop working in the not so near future:

* v1 and v2: from 30/06/2024

* v3: from 30/11/2024

It is highly encouraged to update to v4 of these actions asap to avoid any disruption.

A quick check of Eclipse repos hosted on GitHub showed that there are still some v2 versions in use and the vast majority of projects use v3 atm.

See more details at:
