if the question arirses, why not do more that is (for example) mentioned in the article: I wanted to keep it simple. For example pinning the actions to commit hashes is as simple as an improvement but comes with the cost of additional maintenance load. I am happy include that, too, just let me know. |

Latest issues with security regarding GitHub Actions workflows are not new. This PR hardens the checkout action by preventing credentials to be persisted on disk.
Motivation/What it does: it prevents the GITHUB_TOKEN from being stored in the runner's .git/config, reducing the risk of token exposure during the build.
