docs: document GitHub Actions version convention#113
Merged
Conversation
Adds a short "GitHub Actions" section to CONTRIBUTING.md covering how to pick action versions for new and edited workflows: pin to the latest stable major (currently v6), match what's already used across sibling workflows, no floating refs. Prompted by PR #112 — a new workflow shipped with checkout@v4 (Node 20, deprecated) while every other workflow in the repo was already on @v6. Documenting the convention so it stops recurring.
