There are two primary ways to have Renovate keep thirdparty GitHub Actions up-to-date: 1. pin to a semantic version (`uses: foo/bar@v1.2.3`), or 2. pin to a commit hash (`uses: foo/bar@abcdef012345`) Approach (1) is much more understandable at-a-glance and more compatible with Renovate's "show the changelog" feature. Also, it avoids depending directly on the bleeding edge of the `master` branch of these actions. On the other hand, (2) is much better for security and reproducibility, since repo authors are free to overwrite tags whenever they wish. I noticed that https://github.com/astral-sh/uv was using a hybrid approach where they were using a syntax like 3. pin to both (`uses: foo/bar@abcdef012345 # v1.2.3`) which seems to be the best of both worlds. So this patch is just copypasta from https://github.com/astral-sh/uv/blob/574aa1ef110ef08293512eb200bd6881bb738179/.github/renovate.json5#L25-L35
The previous ref (8edcb1b...) was actually pointing to the HEAD of this repo which is a little ahead of the tag, though the only diff is to `README.md` and `CODEOWNERS` https://github.com/actions/checkout/compare/v4.2.2..8edcb1bdb4e267140fa742c62e395cd74f332709
