actions/checkout

Check out the workflow repository into the workspace.

cave models GitHub Actions: the workspace starts empty, so a job checks out the repo before doing anything with the source.

jobs:
  build:
    image: ghcr.io/atgreen/fedora-cave-builder:latest
    steps:
      - name: Check out the repo
        uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - name: Build
        run: make

Notes

This is a cave-native action: it is referenced as actions/checkout@v4 but resolved cave-local (no github.com) and implemented in Lisp, running in-process on the runner. A different repository: is not supported yet.
