Summary by cubic

Upgrade GitHub Action actions/setup-python from v6 to v7 in .github/workflows/release_pr.yml to pick up upstream fixes and compatibility updates. No other workflow logic changed.

Summary of changes

  • Changed: Use actions/setup-python@v7 (was @v6) to set up Python 3.x in the release PR workflow.
  • Added: Inherits v7 behavior (manifest fetch retry, clearer warning annotations) and prior v6.3 improvements (Linux distro in cache keys, RHEL support) via upstream action; no repo-level config changes needed.
  • Removed: No workflow logic removed in this repo. Upstream removed the "pip-install" input, which we do not use.
  • Memory impact: None expected. Action runtime and caching behavior are comparable.
  • Security: Low risk. Brings upstream dependency updates and fixes. We continue to reference the major tag; pin to a commit SHA if stricter supply-chain controls are required.
  • Tests: No unit tests added. CI will validate by running the updated workflow.

Release Note
We updated our GitHub workflow to use the latest Python setup action for better reliability and compatibility.

Written for commit 9c371b4. Summary will update on new commits.
