GitHub's rate limits have recently been reduced, and we're seeing far more failures from this.

While I'd generally expect setup-python to avoid hitting a rate-limited API, I'd also expect it to retry on spurious HTTP errors and handle rate limiting, especially for a first-party API.

Action version:

5.6.0

Platform:

• Ubuntu
• macOS
• Windows

Runner type:

• Hosted
• Self-hosted

Tools version:

Repro steps:

See description. Requires hitting a GitHub rate limit.

Expected behavior:

I expect the action to retry in a backoff, respecting the retry-after header.

Actual behavior:

The action hard fails.

リンクされた setup-python workflow の失敗から始め、Python のインストールに使用される action の GitHub API リクエスト経路を追跡します。rate-limit のレスポンスを再現し、その後、action が backoff を伴って再試行し、即座にハード失敗するのではなく retry-after ヘッダーに従うことを確認します。
