fix(ci): pin third-party actions to full commit SHAs - #62
Conversation
The account's Actions policy requires a full-length SHA ref. A tag or branch ref is refused at startup — `startup_failure`, no jobs, "this workflow graph cannot be shown" — so these workflows could not run at all. This resolves each ref to the commit it currently points at and records the ref in a trailing comment, e.g. `actions/checkout@<sha> # v4`. `dtolnay/rust-toolchain` takes its toolchain from the ref itself, so those steps also gained an explicit `with: toolchain:` input; without it, a SHA ref would silently lose the channel. No behaviour is intended to change beyond the pins.

Correct the provenance comment.
The action reference uses 22e7bdb322c430c1d0dac6b3bb307f4bb139d0be, and .github/workflows/actions.lock records the same commit. The trailing comment cites the different commit sha1-ede1191ef6ff3ac02c4f4d9efdf837ee517e11d7. Update the comment or regenerate it from actions.lock so the audit annotation identifies the pinned commit accurately.
