Invoke-Pester v5.0.0 repurposed the Version and Prerelease inputs to select the Pester module version and renamed the GitHub bootstrap-module controls to GitHubVersion and GitHubPrerelease. Remap the action's Version and Prerelease inputs (which select the GitHub module) to GitHubVersion and GitHubPrerelease to preserve their documented behavior.

Pull request overview
Updates this repository’s composite GitHub Action to use the newer PSModule/Invoke-Pester action (v5.1.0) while preserving the documented behavior of this action’s public Version and Prerelease inputs (i.e., still selecting the GitHub bootstrap module version, not the Pester module version).
Changes:
- Bumped the pinned
PSModule/Invoke-Pesteraction reference from v4.2.4 to v5.1.0 (by commit SHA). - Remapped this action’s
Version/Prereleaseinputs toInvoke-Pester’sGitHubVersion/GitHubPrereleaseinputs to avoid the v5 breaking-change semantics shift.
💡 Add Copilot custom instructions for smarter, more guided reviews. Learn how to get started.
Add PesterVersion/PesterPrerelease and rename Version/Prerelease to GitHubVersion/GitHubPrerelease so Pester and GitHub module versions can be controlled independently and trickle down to the Invoke-Pester and GitHub-Script steps.
Version/Prerelease now control the PSScriptAnalyzer module (the action's namesake). A bundled prescript installs the chosen version, removes any other PSScriptAnalyzer version from the session, and imports the chosen version -Global so the tests use it instead of the runner's preinstalled copy.

Bumps
PSModule/Invoke-Pesterfrom 4.2.4 to 5.1.0 and reworks the action's version inputs so callers can independently pin the three modules the action relies on — and guarantees the pinned versions are the ones actually installed and loaded.Each module now follows the same convention used by its dedicated action, where the bare
Version/Prereleasecontrols the namesake module:Version/PrereleasePesterVersion/PesterPrereleaseGitHubVersion/GitHubPrereleaseNew:
Version/Prereleasepin PSScriptAnalyzerThe action now provisions the PSScriptAnalyzer module itself instead of relying on whatever copy is preinstalled on the runner. It installs the requested version (NuGet version-range syntax, for example
[1.0.0, 2.0.0); empty installs the latest), removes any other PSScriptAnalyzer version from the session, and imports the chosen version — so the analysis runs against exactly the version you selected.New:
PesterVersion/PesterPrereleaseandGitHubVersion/GitHubPrereleaseControl the Pester module (the test runner) and the GitHub module (used to resolve paths and emit results) independently, both using NuGet version-range syntax.
Breaking Changes
VersionandPrereleasechanged meaning: they previously controlled the GitHub module; they now control PSScriptAnalyzer. Callers that pinned the GitHub module must switch toGitHubVersion/GitHubPrerelease.Before:
