This is a one line patch to here:

So it uploads every commit for every PR? Seems excessive.

Could we do it based on a label?
pllim commentedon Oct 9, 2026
Wait a minute... Don't we already do that if we slap the "build all wheels" label on a PR?

Then I guess the ask is for a smaller set of wheels, e.g. just linux? Don't need the full matrix always
Cadair commentedon Oct 9, 2026
We always build the one Linux wheel as part of the regular CI. I'm saying we upload that one.

And I am saying since that one always run no matter what, it might be too much for every commit in every PR. And if you want to control by label, we already have that. So I don't see anything needs to be done here.

I don't think uploading one wheel is going to cause any undue stress on the world?
Cadair commentedon Oct 9, 2026
It's a 10MB wheel, we are already building it on each run. Might as well save it for a while so it's useful?

Will we get billed if it becomes excessive? https://docs.github.com/en/billing/concepts/product-billing/github-actions

I'm pretty sure we have unlimited actions?

https://docs.github.com/en/billing/concepts/product-billing/github-actions#free-use-of-github-actions says 500 MB. What does that really mean?
