The more time I spend with GitHub Actions, the more convinced I become that workflow files belong in a repo but not in the commit history graph of the default ref; maybe under a different namespace, refs/ci/* or something. There's too much value in keeping them right next to the code, but too much negative value in requiring their changes to be intermingled with codebase commits.
That said I also firmly believe that workflow files should be STRICTLY orchestration; execution logic is app code.
