No | true |
Determines if downloaded zip files must be cached |
Note
This action is using bash scripts which utilize the curl and unzip commands. Ensure your runner has these
preinstalled.
Note
With version: latest the cache key rotates weekly, so a cached zip is never more than a week behind the
latest AWS CLI release. Pinned versions are immutable and cached indefinitely.
Note
If AWS CLI is already present on the runner, installation is skipped, unless you pinned a version that
does not match the installed one.
