Pull request overview
This PR upgrades the actions/checkout action from version 5 to version 6 across all GitHub Actions workflows in the repository. The update is part of routine dependency maintenance via Dependabot. Version 6 introduces Node.js 24 support and changes credential persistence to use a separate file under $RUNNER_TEMP instead of directly in the local git config, which improves security and isolation.
- Updated all 12 instances of
actions/checkout@v5toactions/checkout@v6across 6 workflow files - Changes are compatible with existing workflow configurations (standard GitHub-hosted runners, no Docker container actions)
- No breaking changes affect this repository's usage pattern
