When I committed the first workflow in e84a016 (Add a workflow to synchronize refs from git/git to gitgitgadget/git, 2023-08-18), I had missed the first public release of `actions/create-github-app-token` by _mere days_: The first version of that GitHub Action to be officially published to the GitHub Marketplace was v1.1.0, on August 22nd, 2023: https://github.com/actions/create-github-app-token/releases/tag/v1.1.0, i.e. a mere 4 days after I had committed the initial version of the `sync-ref` workflow. That was the reason why, when I scoured around for a GitHub Action that could be used to obtain an installation access token, I only found a third-party one. I don't exactly remember how I got aware of the official Action provided by GitHub itself, but I know that I immediately opened #5 so that I wouldn't forget to eventually migrate to that Action. This commit is it. With this, we switch from that 3rd-party Action to the official GitHub one. Signed-off-by: Johannes Schindelin <[email protected]>

Either I missed it when creating the workflows in this repository, or it did not exist yet, be that as it may,
actions/create-github-app-tokenexists now and is "more official" a GitHub Action. Let's use it.The text was updated successfully, but these errors were encountered:
