Pull request overview
This PR speeds up the repository’s GitHub Actions CI by caching the NuGet global packages folder so repeated runs don’t re-download dependencies for each matrix leg.
Changes:
- Added an
actions/cache@v4step to cache~/.nuget/packagesbetweenactions/setup-dotnet@v4anddotnet restore. - Cache key is scoped by OS and invalidated when any
*.csprojchanges, with an OS-scoped restore key fallback.

Each matrix leg (
net8.0,net9.0,net10.0) downloads all NuGet packages from scratch on every run. This addsactions/cache@v4to cache~/.nuget/packages, reducingdotnet restoretime from ~30–60s to ~1–2s on cache hits.Changes
