Walkthrough

The CI workflow now uses newer pinned preparation actions. The core testing script now performs shallow branch fetches and creates a shallow, tag-less clone for fresh checkouts.

Changes

CI maintenance

Layer / File(s)	Summary
Update CI action pins .github/workflows/test.yml	The prepare and ha-core-release jobs now use newer pinned revisions of prepare-python-and-code.
Use shallow core checkouts scripts/ci-core-testing.sh	Configured core branches are fetched with limited history before checkout. Fresh clones use the master branch with --depth 1 and --no-tags.

Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 43a73

This change makes core checkouts shallow, but configured non-master or unavailable branches can now cause the CI setup to fail rather than retaining a usable checkout. The fetch and checkout flow should be corrected before merge.

Poem

A rabbit checks the branches light,
With shallow hops from day to night.
New pins guide the workflow trail,
Fewer tags ride the cloning rail.
CI burrows fast and bright.

- Around line 136-137: Update both fetch paths in the CI script so checkout
proceeds only when git fetch succeeds; after a successful fetch, create or reset
the target local branch from FETCH_HEAD before checking it out. Preserve the
existing warning behavior for failed fetches and apply the same guarded flow to
both branch-fetch cases.
