This patch series upgrades to newer versions of a couple GitHub Actions we use, and also streamlines the Windows jobs using the relatively new setup-git-for-windows-sdk Action [https://github.com/marketplace/actions/setup-git-for-windows-sdk] (Git for Windows is running with this Action for a while now, getting all the kinks out). This patch series should also address the problem where seen was pushed so rapidly that the windows-test jobs failed because they no longer checked out the identical revision as the windows-build job. Changes since v2: * Made the handwaving make [...] NO_GETTEXT comment in the commit message of the patch "artifacts-tar: respect NO_GETTEXT" more explicit, by setting NO_GETTEXT to a bogus value as required by make. * Added an explicit NO_GETTEXT=YesPlease to the make artifacts-tar invocation in the vs-build job, as well as an explanation in the corresponding commit message why this explicit mention is technically not required.
The above indeed helps the CI at GitHub. The last run with 'seen' can be seen at https://github.com/git/git/actions/runs/1005977569 Thanks.
