GitHub Action to install the Mergify CLI
(mergify-cli) with version pinning and Renovate autoupdate.
It installs the prebuilt mergify binary via the mergify-cli install.sh
installer, which downloads the binary from the GitHub release and verifies it
against the release SHA256SUMS. For a pinned version the installer is fetched
from that release tag; latest uses main. The action then puts the binary on
PATH and exposes the installed version as an output. Pinned by default,
latest supported. No Python or toolchain is required; Linux and macOS are
supported.

Pin the action to a released major (see the releases).
The v1 tag moves to each new v1.x.y release; pin a full version such as
v1.3.0 to stay on one release. A change of the default mergify-cli version
releases itself as the next v1.x.0 once it lands on main:
- uses: Mergifyio/setup-cli@v1 - run: mergify --version
Pin a specific mergify-cli version, or install the latest one:
- uses: Mergifyio/setup-cli@v1 id: setup-cli with: mergify_cli_version: latest - run: echo "Installed mergify-cli ${{ steps.setup-cli.outputs.mergify_cli_version }}"
