Description:
Currently, releasing new versions of the
setup-javaaction is the manual and unreliable process. In scope of this PR we added a workflow file in order to automate creating/updating a major version tag when a newsetup-javaversion is released. We use the actions/publish-action action for this purpose.Details:
We added:
workflow_dispatchevent to manually trigger a workflow run;releasewebhook event to automatically trigger workflow run when a new action version is released;releaseNewActionVersionenvironment with protection rules to require a manual approval.Reverting changes is almost the same process as updating major version tag. In case of any issues related to the updated tag, we have to manually trigger workflow run with the previous stable tag as a parameter.
