A GitHub repository can used one of the available branches as action inside its workflows.

### End of Life of a branch

When a branch is not supported anymore, the following process occurs
Since `2023-10-20`, when a new major version is release,

- Since `v4.x` branch, the branch will be deleted 2 major versions after
- So `v4.x` branch will be deleted when `v7.x` branch will have its first release
- prefer the `v4` tag to `v4.x` branch as reference in our workflow,
- Before `v4.x` branch, the branch will be converted into a tag when the support is dropped
- So `v3.x` branch will be converted as tag when `v5.x` branch will have its first release
- The previous one will continue to receive security patches during a 3-months periods,
- After the 3-month periods, the branch is deleted, only the tags remains.
