Elegant CI/CD for GitHub Actions

aurora-github is a gallery of Linux-based GitHub actions - relying on the superlative Elvish shell - designed to create elegant and minimalist workflows for a variety of technologies, while focusing on best practices such as default branch protection, pull requests and convention-over-configuration.

For most of the actions, it is essential to name branches according to semantic versioning - like v4.2.7: this ensures a smooth workflow while remaining largely compatible with other flow architectures - for example, multiple feature branches can stem from a given version branch.

The actions can be grouped by technology:
