CodeQL Action Changelog
See the releases page for the relevant changes to the CodeQL CLI and language packs.
Note that the only difference between
v2andv3of the CodeQL Action is the node version they support, withv3running on node 20 while we continue to releasev2to support running on node 16. For example3.22.11was the firstv3release and is functionally identical to2.22.11. This approach ensures an easy way to track exactly which features are included in different versions, indicated by the minor and patch version numbers.[UNRELEASED]
