Multiple action runs shown in PR checks

[DaveSkender]

Describe the bug

This doesn’t smell right:

Source PR: facioquo/stock-indicators-python#342
Source Action: https://github.com/DaveSkender/Stock.Indicators.Python/blob/150ea5582bdc79555d8acc8a437a18caad4bbd7d/.github/workflows/semantic-pr-linter.yml

Note: we are using a matrix build, but those are defined separately. Should I try to set some concurrency setting?

Expected behavior

One latest entry in the PR “Checks” list, like any other re-run actions.

@DaveSkender Did you figure this out. I am experiencing the same issue.

I can’t see exactly what I did to fix this. It may have been a transient glitch with the runner, but am not sure. I did update the tooling action versions. Here my latest version, that works well, for reference: lint-pull-request.yml

I took a closer look, and think the multiple action runs was somehow related to my core build action (keeping in mind that this action was separate) was using a matrixed runner that was reporting back to the PR for each instance; further triggering this action redundantly for pull_request_target.

I believe my workaround fix was to limit code coverage reporting to only one primary matrix instance.
