Install Geth action

This action installs geth and tools (abigen, bootnode, clef, evm, rlpdump) into your workflow. It can be run on Linux (ubuntu-latest), macOS (macos-latest), or Windows (windows-latest).

• 🚀 Geth downloads page: https://geth.ethereum.org/downloads/

Additionally, this action uses GitHub caching mechanism to speed up your workflow execution time!

Releasing

New versions releasing scenario:

• Make required changes in the changelog file
• Build the action distribution (make build or yarn build)
• Commit and push changes (including dist directory changes - this is important) into the master branch
• Publish new release using repo releases page (git tag should follow vX.Y.Z format)

Major and minor git tags (v1 and v1.2 if you publish v1.2.Z release) will be updated automatically.
