cache upload hangs for 2 minutes after work is done

[DavidS-ovm]

Welcome

• Yes, I understand that the GitHub action repository is not the repository of golangci-lint itself.
• Yes, I've searched similar issues on GitHub and didn't find any.
• Yes, I've included all information below (version, config, etc).

Description of the problem

The action hangs for 2 minutes after uploading the cache for no apparent reason.

See this example from the golanci-lint main repo:

• This is not specific to golangci/golangci-lint setup, I've originally found this in my repos.
• When re-running the job (in my repo), the cache does not get uploaded and the delay vanishes.

Version of golangci-lint

golangci-lint-1.56.2-linux-amd64

v4.0.0

I'm seeing the same behavior, the action is configured as:

      - name: Lint
        uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v4
        with:
          version: latest
          # Use the existing caches for ~/go/pkg/mod and ~/.cache/go-build
          skip-pkg-cache: true
          skip-build-cache: true
          # Bump the timeout to reduce build flakiness
          args: --timeout=120s

Exactly the same issue here with a nearly empty project.

ci.yaml

jobs:
  linting:
    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
    steps:
      - uses: actions/checkout@v4
      - uses: actions/setup-go@v5
        with:
          go-version: '1.21'
          cache: false
      - uses: golangci/golangci-lint-action@v4
        with:
          version: v1.56
      - run: golangci-lint run ./...
