alexcrichton opened issue #6285:
One thing I forgot about when enabling the Merge Queue feature for this repository is that the existing usages of
actions/cache
are all broken now. The problem appears to be that caches are associated with a branch and while caches can pull from the "base branch" the base branch in our case ismain
which never runs CI. This means that all branches are always separate and have no shared base to pull from.I posted about this here on the github merge queue discussion feedback but wanted to open up something here to track this. I was about to make a PR to remove all the caches but that didn't feel quite right, so I went this route instead.

Could we do a daily cron-triggered CI run on main to prime the caches?

Oh yes indeed, that's a great idea!
