Async/parallel checkout

Open staabm opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

In some workflow its required to checkout several repositories. Doing so in separate sequential steps requires a lot of time.

It would be great to run several checkouts in parallel (or async?) to reduce overall workflow runtime.

Related, it would be useful to configure --jobs <n> to potentially speed up submodule checkouts, if that's not already set and might provide a boost in the Actions environment.

From a glance at commands run in a workflow I've tried submodules with and browsing this repository very quickly, this doesn't appear to be already the case.

I too would love the option to have parallel submodule checkouts by specifying --jobs

@StevenMaude @norman-zon I've created a separate ticket #945 since this one tries to address different issue and doesn't sound doable with current Actions architecture.

@staabm For parallel steps see this community post https://github.com/community/community/discussions/14484
