GitHub Actions
Introduction
GitHub Actions is a tool provided by GitHub that allows one to author CI/CD pipelines within GitHub itself. It currently is our goto method of implementing CI/CD in our projects. Older projects use Jenkins.
Available actions
This list contains actions that are available in our organization namespace. Those actions should always be preferred instead of third party actions. If you are using a third party action, make sure to fork it into our organization and prefix its repository name with action-.
The table below might be outdated. If you notice that an action is missing, add it.
