Sourced from astral-sh/setup-uv's releases.

v6.0.0 🌈 activate-environment and working-directory

Changes

This version contains some breaking changes which have been gathering up for a while. Lets dive into them:

• Activate environment
• Working Directory
• Default cache-dependency-glob
• Use default cache dir on self hosted runners

Activate environment

In previous versions using the input python-version automatically activated a venv at the repository root. This led to some unwanted side-effects, was sometimes unexpected and not flexible enough.

The venv activation is now explicitly controlled with the new input activate-environment (false by default):

- name: Install the latest version of uv and activate the environment
  uses: astral-sh/setup-uv@v6
  with:
    activate-environment: true
- run: uv pip install pip

The venv gets created by the uv venv command so the python version is controlled by the python-version input or the files pyproject.toml, uv.toml, .python-version in the working-directory.

Working Directory

The new input working-directory controls where we look for pyproject.toml, uv.toml and .python-version files which are used to determine the version of uv and python to install.

It can also be used to control where the venv gets created.

- name: Install uv based on the config files in the working-directory
  uses: astral-sh/setup-uv@v6
  with:
    working-directory: my/subproject/dir

[!CAUTION]

The inputs pyproject-file and uv-file have been removed.

Default cache-dependency-glob

@​ssbarnea found out that the default cache-dependency-glob was not suitable for a lot of users.

The old default
