GitHub Action for checking out a repository. (Simplified actions/checkout alternative without depending on Node.js.)

• Usage
• Why not actions/checkout?
• Related Projects
• License

This action currently provides a minimal subset of the features provided by actions/checkout.

The features supported as of v1.0.0 are purely based on my use cases within public repositories, but feel free to submit an issue if you see something missing in your use case. See issues for known unsupported features.

- uses: taiki-e/checkout-action@v1

Almost equivalent to (for public repositories):

- uses: actions/checkout@v4
  with:
    persist-credentials: false

As of 2024-03-08, the latest version of actions/checkout that uses node20 doesn't work on CentOS 7.

Also, in actions/* actions, each update of the Node.js used increments the major version (it is the correct behavior for compatibility although), so workflows that use it require maintenance on a regular basis. (Unless you have fully automated dependency updates.)
