Duplicated cache due to concurrency

Misc

When running multiple runs at the same time, the cache is duplicated due to concurrency, even with the same key and for the same branch:

Version: cache@v4 Step:

    - name: Cache
      uses: actions/cache@v4
      id: cache
      with:
        key: venv-${{ runner.os }}-${{ runner.arch }}-pip-${{ hashFiles(format('acceptance/{0}', inputs.file)) }}
        path: ${{ steps.cache-dir.outputs.dir }}
        restore-keys: ${{ runner.os }}-${{ runner.arch }}-pip-

I am facing same issue with the following configuration

  uses: actions/cache@v4
        id: node_modules
        with:
          path: |
            **/node_modules
          key: ${{ runner.os }}-node_modules-${{ hashFiles('**/yarn.lock') }}-${{ steps.node.outputs.version }}

You have one for each ref. I think that this is the expected result. The problem is when a cache is duplicated for the same hash and the same ref.

Ah sorry you are right, I was expecting the case to be used if the key is same regardless of the ref
