Can't cache dependencies from a composite action about setup-go

[matthewhughes934]

I was expecting dependencies to cache

Just to clarify: you're seeing the cache not found on repeated runs on the same branch in the calling repo?

Do you see the cache being successfully saved on a previous run with a line like (in the Post Go Test section):

Cache saved with the key: setup-go-Linux-ubuntu22-....

Hello @dkirrane, Thank you for creating this issue and we will look into it :)

@matthewhughes934 - yes to confirm re-runs always download dependencies again

I can see there is 1 cache

[matthewhughes934]

to confirm re-runs always download dependencies again

👍 in that case is your issue related to the first run of the action? From what I understand cache access is limited to workflows the repo they were created in (from: https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-workflows/caching-dependencies-to-speed-up-workflows#restrictions-for-accessing-a-cache) so I wouldn't expect the first run to hit any cache

Ok, seems similar to this actions/toolkit#1035
I'll try the workaround suggested
