GitHub Actions Steps Can Now Run in Parallel
GitHub Changeloghigh confidence
Why it matters
- →Enables more efficient CI/CD workflows by reducing execution time.
- →Allows developers to manage complex tasks like running multiple builds simultaneously.
- →Improves log management by keeping logs separate even when steps run concurrently.
GitHub has updated its Actions feature to allow workflow steps to run in parallel, a move that enhances the efficiency of CI/CD processes. Previously, steps were executed one after another, but with new keywords like 'background' and 'parallel', steps can now run concurrently while maintaining separate logs. This update allows developers to perform tasks such as running multiple builds at once or managing background services more effectively. The change is expected to streamline workflows and improve productivity for developers using GitHub Actions.

Additionally, users in the Medium analysis depth public preview can now benefit from improved configurability and visibility of review depth. Organizations can set default review levels, enhancing control over the review process. These changes make Copilot's code review more focused and cost-effective.
