Per https://codeberg.org/forgejo/forgejo/issues/5349#issuecomment-10418244 , upstream recommends that we update our runners to a more recent version than 11.3.1 (which they're currently on). In particular, current versions cache actions, which should substantially reduce network traffic and improve reliability (avoiding the frequent workflow failures due to timeouts reaching code.forgejo.org , which may be caused by us hitting it too much and getting rate-limited or something).

Runners updated to version '12.6.4' in both staging and production.

I tested it on staging, running an action on an updated runner, it seemed to work fine.
Please let me know if everything works for you now.

Thanks, will keep an eye out and see if the flakes go away. I guess we can close this ticket since the runners are upgraded now: if it doesn't fix the flaking problem I'll raise another ticket.
