Bonjour! 🇫🇷

I contribute to GitHub Actions Kotlin DSL which provides an alternative to write GitHub Actions not in YAML but in a type-safe programming language: Kotlin.

To this end we provide type-safe wrappers for currently 72 (and counting) wrapper actions. Those type-safe wrappers are generated from its action.yml which we update when it goes to a new major version, for example actions/cache@v2 to actions/cache@v3

And of course we support your action as well!

Unfortunately when an action don't have a major version, which is what GitHub recommands, we are forced to update manually for every minor version, like from appleboy/scp-action/v0.1.2 to appleboy/scp-action/v0.1.3

See our issue here

Would you consider creating a major version for your action?
That would make our life easier, and the life of your users easier in general.

You can find here the recommendations from GitHub:
