Upgrade GitHub Actions for Node 24 compatibility
Summary
Upgrade GitHub Actions to their latest versions to ensure compatibility with Node 24, as Node 20 will reach end-of-life in April 2026.
Changes
| Action | Old Version(s) | New Version | Release | Files |
|---|---|---|---|---|
actions/checkout |
v5 |
v6 |
Release | cherrypick.yml |
Context
Per GitHub's announcement, Node 20 is being deprecated and runners will begin using Node 24 by default starting March 4th, 2026.
Why this matters
- Node 20 EOL: April 2026
- Node 24 default: March 4th, 2026
- Action: Update to latest action versions that support Node 24
Security Note
Actions that were previously pinned to commit SHAs remain pinned to SHAs (updated to the latest release SHA) to maintain the security benefits of immutable references.
Testing
