ci: Cache pre-commit environments in GitHub Actions

[Copilot]

Add caching for pre-commit hook environments to reduce CI runtime by avoiding repeated downloads and installations of linters.

Changes

• .github/workflows/pre-commit.yml: Added actions/[email protected] step to cache ~/.cache/pre-commit with container-specific cache keys
  • Added a step to compute SHA256 hash of inputs.container for safe cache key generation
  • Cache key differentiates between different container images
• .github/workflows/pre-commit-autoupdate.yml: Added identical cache configuration

Cache key for pre-commit.yml: pre-commit-${{ runner.os }}-${{ steps.cache-key.outputs.suffix }}-${{ hashFiles('.pre-commit-config.yaml') }}

• Uses full SHA256 hash of container input to differentiate between container images
• Invalidates automatically when pre-commit config changes
• Falls back to container-specific cache for partial hits
• Works with both container-based and native runner execution

Cache key for pre-commit-autoupdate.yml: pre-commit-${{ runner.os }}-${{ hashFiles('.pre-commit-config.yaml') }}

• Invalidates automatically when pre-commit config changes
• Falls back to OS-specific cache for partial hits

Warning

Firewall rules blocked me from connecting to one or more addresses (expand for details)

I tried to connect to the following addresses, but was blocked by firewall rules:

• https://api.github.com/repos/actions/cache/releases/latest
  • Triggering command: /usr/bin/curl curl -s REDACTED (http block)
• https://api.github.com/repos/actions/cache/tags
  • Triggering command: /usr/bin/curl curl -sL REDACTED (http block)

If you need me to access, download, or install something from one of these locations, you can either:

• Configure Actions setup steps to set up my environment, which run before the firewall is enabled
• Add the appropriate URLs or hosts to the custom allowlist in this repository's Copilot coding agent settings (admins only)

@copilot instead of runner.os let's use inputs.container?

[Copilot]

Changed to use inputs.container in the cache key. Since the container input is a JSON string with special characters, I added a step to compute a SHA256 hash of it for safe inclusion in the cache key. The implementation uses the full hash with proper error handling. See commits 8f1767c, 2992ecb, and 9e91a27.
