Bumps actions/download-artifact from 7 to 8.

Release notes

Sourced from actions/download-artifact's releases.

v8.0.0

v8 - What's new

Direct downloads

To support direct uploads in actions/upload-artifact, the action will no longer attempt to unzip all downloaded files. Instead, the action checks the Content-Type header ahead of unzipping and skips non-zipped files. Callers wishing to download a zipped file as-is can also set the new skip-decompress parameter to false.

Enforced checks (breaking)

A previous release introduced digest checks on the download. If a download hash didn't match the expected hash from the server, the action would log a warning. Callers can now configure the behavior on mismatch with the digest-mismatch parameter. To be secure by default, we are now defaulting the behavior to error which will fail the workflow run.

ESM

To support new versions of the @actions/* packages, we've upgraded the package to ESM.

Summary by cubic

ci: bump actions/download-artifact from v7 to v8 and pin v8.0.1. Enables direct downloads and enforces digest integrity checks by default.

  • Migration
    • Workflows may fail on digest mismatch; configure the digest-mismatch parameter if you need non-blocking behavior.
    • If you need zipped files to stay zipped, use the new skip-decompress parameter.

Written for commit 585022e. Summary will update on new commits.
