ci: set 1-day retention for intermediate image artifacts - #5
Merged
Conversation
The per-arch docker image tarballs uploaded by the build-image job are only consumed by the push-manifest job within the same run. Without an explicit retention-days they fall back to the default (up to 90 days), needlessly retaining large image tarballs. Set retention-days: 1. Signed-off-by: Peter Balogh <poke@riptides.io>

Summary
docker.ymluploads per-arch image tarballs (image-<arch>.tar) as GitHub Actions artifacts. These are purely intermediate hand-offs: thebuild-imagejob produces them and the downstreampush-manifestjob consumes them within the same run to load/push images and assemble the multi-arch manifest.Without an explicit
retention-days, they fall back to the repo/org default (up to 90 days), needlessly retaining large image tarballs.Changes
docker.yml— addretention-days: 1to theimage-<arch>uploadSince the artifacts are consumed within the same workflow run, a 1-day retention is safe.
