Dear Git developer!
I repost my suggested contribution from:
https://github.com/git/git/pull/2278
I updated all GitHub Actions to their latest major release. In contrast to "ci: GitHub Actions updates" (brought to you by Dependabot (https://lore.kernel.org/git/pull.2097.git.1776775319.gitgitgadget@gmail.com/T/#t), I update some more standard actions and mshick/add-pr-comment. They fix deprecation warnings that GitHub Action deprecated Node20.js.
Kind regards, Christoph
