SSH host keys no longer managed – read below 👇
Starting with this release, this action no longer writes GitHub's SSH host keys into the known_hosts SSH config file upon start.
GitHub changed their host keys on short notice this morning, see https://github.blog/2023-03-23-we-updated-our-rsa-ssh-host-key/. We took this as an opportunity to stop maintaining GH SSH keys in the code shipped with this action (#171).
What you need to do:
- On GitHub hosted runners, nothing. ✔︎ These runners ship with SSH host keys (for
github.com) maintained by directly by GitHub. - On self-hosted runners, review and fix your SSH
known_hostsfile:- First, you'll find it bloated with redundant entries for
github.com, as described in #106. Remove these entries. - Review https://github.blog/2023-03-23-we-updated-our-rsa-ssh-host-key/. You probably removed the old (invalid) SSH key in the previous step.
- Configure GitHub's current SSH keys as documented on https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/githubs-ssh-key-fingerprints
- As long as versions before
v0.8.0of this action here are run on the self-hosted runner, the old entries will come back. Keep an eye on it, possibly you'll have to rinse & repeat.

Fix Windows runners, add flag to disable logging key identities
Being the second release today, this version adds a new action input to turn off logging public key identities (#122). Additionally, Windows-based runners should work again (#137, #140) and a nonsensical log message that confused many users was fixed (#139).
Thanks to everyone involved!

Update GitHub Host Keys
The most important change in this release is the update of the SSH Host Keys used by GitHub.com (#102, #101).
In case you'd like to verify the keys, see https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/githubs-ssh-key-fingerprints.
Fixes for the post-action run "cleanup" phase
This release makes sure that the ssh-agent is actually terminated after workflow runs, and that this also happens on workflow failure.
Use case-insensitive scanning for deploy key repo URLs
Fixes that repository URLs (for deploy keys) were only recognized when written in lower case.
Fixes deployment keys on Windows
This release switches to using the ssh-agent and ssh-add binaries provided with Git for Windows (#63). These versions of the SSH binaries are based on a newer version of OpenSSH than the versions included in Windows natively. Deploy key support is not possible with the native versions.
