Highlights
Enhanced Caching: Windows fixes and a cache-protocol bump
This release updates
gradle-actions-cachingto v1.0.0 (up from v0.7.0), which fixes two significant caching defects, both most visible on Windows:
Cache entries failed to store at all on Windows.. Every entry failed with
Path Validation Error: Path(s) specified in the action for caching do(es) not exist, even though the Gradle User Home was fully intact. Nothing was stored, so every downstream job ran against an empty Gradle User Home. The cause was a nested, unpatched copy of@actions/globcombined with a silently swallowedrequire()in the bundle, which left Windows path separators unnormalized.Cache cleanup deleted instrumented jars that were in use. A bug in key hashing for paths shorter than 64 characters made cleanup judge freshly created
caches/jars-9entries as unused and remove them, so theinstrumented-jarsentry was never saved and every job re-instrumented its classpaths.Also included: cache entry names are now consistent between the save and restore reports — restore previously fell back to showing the raw glob pattern (e.g.
/home/runner/.gradle/caches/modules-*/files-*/*/*/*/*/) instead ofdependencies.[!IMPORTANT] Existing cache entries are invalidated by this release. The cache protocol version was bumped to
v2, so the first run after upgrading will be a cache miss and will repopulate the cache. No configuration changes are required.Basic caching warns instead of failing silently
The basic (open-source) caching provider now emits a warning and reports
(Entry not saved: save failed)in the Job Summary when a cache save fails, rather than reporting success (#1028).Dependency submission works with Isolated Projects
dependency-submissionnow disables Isolated Projects via a promoted property, so dependency graph generation works on builds that enable it (#1025). Thanks to@reinsch82for the contribution.Updated defaults

- Fixed a bug where a network error while streaming the download of the CodeQL bundle could terminate the
