Reviewing PR: Bump actions/checkout from 3 to 5

Todo List

  • [x] Read all changed workflow files
  • [x] Analyze version changes and compatibility
  • [x] Review security implications
  • [x] Provide comprehensive feedback

Review Summary

This PR updates actions/checkout from v3/v4 to v5 across 4 GitHub Actions workflow files. Overall, this is a safe and recommended update with minimal risk.

Code Quality & Best Practices ✅

Positive aspects:

  • Consistent update across all workflows (all now use v5)
  • Proper version pinning using major version tags (v5)
  • All workflows continue to use appropriate parameters (e.g., fetch-depth: 0 in tag_and_deploy_to_cocoapods.yml:13)

No issues found - the changes are straightforward version bumps with no logic changes.

Potential Bugs or Issues ⚠️

Runner Version Requirement:

  • actions/checkout@v5 requires GitHub Actions runner v2.327.1 or newer
  • Your workflows use macos-13 and macos-latest runners
  • GitHub-hosted runners are automatically updated, so this should not be an issue
  • Risk level: Low (GitHub-hosted runners meet this requirement)

Node.js Version Change:

  • v5 uses Node.js 24 (v3/v4 used Node.js 20/16)
  • This is an internal change to the action itself and should not affect your workflows
  • Risk level: None

Compatibility:

  • No breaking changes in parameters or outputs
  • All existing checkout configurations remain valid
  • Risk level: None

Performance Considerations ⚡

Improvements:

  • v5 includes updated dependencies and optimizations
  • No performance degradation expected
  • Checkout operations should perform the same or slightly better

Security Concerns 🔒

Security improvements:

  • v5 includes updated dependencies with security patches
  • Uses newer Node.js runtime (24) with latest security updates
  • Reduces exposure to known vulnerabilities in older versions

Recommendation: ✅ Approve this update - it improves security posture with no downside.

Test Coverage 🧪

Testing consideration:

  • Workflow changes cannot be unit tested
  • Changes will be validated when workflows run in CI/CD
  • Recommendation: Monitor the first few workflow runs after merge to ensure checkout operations succeed

Specific File Changes

  1. .github/workflows/docs.yml (lines 23, 37)

    • Two checkout steps updated from v4 → v5
    • Both are simple checkouts with default parameters ✅

  2. .github/workflows/lint.yml (line 16)

    • Single checkout step updated from v3 → v5
    • Simple checkout with default parameters ✅

  3. .github/workflows/tag_and_deploy_to_cocoapods.yml (line 11)

    • Checkout step updated from v3 → v5
    • Uses fetch-depth: 0 parameter (still supported) ✅

  4. .github/workflows/tests.yml (line 18)

    • Single checkout step updated from v3 → v5
    • Simple checkout with default parameters ✅

Final Recommendation

✅ LGTM - Recommend merging this PR

Rationale:

  • Security improvements from updated dependencies
  • No breaking changes or compatibility issues
  • All workflow configurations remain valid
  • Low risk update with benefits

Post-merge action:

  • Monitor the first few workflow runs to confirm successful checkout operations

Beginning January 27, 2026, Dependabot will no longer support the @dependabot merge command. Please use GitHub's native pull request controls instead. Please see the changelog announcement for additional details.

One of your CI runs failed on this pull request, so Dependabot won't merge it.

Dependabot will still automatically merge this pull request if you amend it and your tests pass.

dependabot[bot] avatar Oct 16 '25 05:10 dependabot[bot]

A newer version of actions/checkout exists, but since this PR has been edited by someone other than Dependabot I haven't updated it. You'll get a PR for the updated version as normal once this PR is merged.
