Subject[Csnd-dev] Github actions

Some of the actions from csound_builds.yml
are failing in the code checkout stage, eg

error: cannot lock ref 'refs/tags/csound5.07': Unable to create '/Users/runner/work/csound/csound/.git/refs/tags/csound5.07.lock': File exists.
Another git process seems to be running in this repository, e.g.
an editor opened by 'git commit'. Please make sure all processes
are terminated then try again. If it still fails, a git process
may have crashed in this repository earlier:
remove the file manually to continue.
Error: Git fetch failed with exit code: 255
Error: Exit code 1 returned from process: file name '/Users/runner/actions-runner/cached/bin/Runner.PluginHost', arguments 'action "GitHub.Runner.Plugins.Repository.v1_0.CheckoutTask, Runner.Plugins"'.

Does anyone know how to fix that? I noticed it first happen last week and I was able to re-run the jobs but now they're failing on re-runs too.

I think I fixed this in the last PR for *in operations by updating actions/checkout to v4. There still seems to be a failing build "ARM baremetal" (still using v1) which I cannot find in the repo
