Walkthrough

The pull request updates the GitHub Actions workflow configuration by upgrading the versions of three actions in the workflow file. Specifically, the actions/cache and actions/checkout actions have been updated from v3 to v4, and the lycheeverse/lychee-action has been downgraded from v1.5.4 to v1. Additionally, the documentation has been modified by removing references to Twitter and simplifying a promotional statement regarding OpenMS.

Poem

Oh, I'm a leaping bunny full of cheer,
Updating actions to brand new gear.
Cache and checkout hop with glee,
Lychee's version jumps merrily.
In our workflow burrow, progress is near—
Hoppy code carrots make our day clear!

There are 3 ways to chat with CodeRabbit:

• Review comments: Directly reply to a review comment made by CodeRabbit. Example:
  • I pushed a fix in commit <commit_id>, please review it.
  • Generate unit testing code for this file.
  • Open a follow-up GitHub issue for this discussion.
• Files and specific lines of code (under the "Files changed" tab): Tag @coderabbitai in a new review comment at the desired location with your query. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai generate unit testing code for this file.
  • @coderabbitai modularize this function.
• PR comments: Tag @coderabbitai in a new PR comment to ask questions about the PR branch. For the best results, please provide a very specific query, as very limited context is provided in this mode. Examples:
  • @coderabbitai gather interesting stats about this repository and render them as a table. Additionally, render a pie chart showing the language distribution in the codebase.
  • @coderabbitai read src/utils.ts and generate unit testing code.
  • @coderabbitai read the files in the src/scheduler package and generate a class diagram using mermaid and a README in the markdown format.
  • @coderabbitai help me debug CodeRabbit configuration file.

Note: Be mindful of the bot's finite context window. It's strongly recommended to break down tasks such as reading entire modules into smaller chunks. For a focused discussion, use review comments to chat about specific files and their changes, instead of using the PR comments.
