(2)Github action for generating checksum files
This is a simple Github Action that calculates the checksum of files and outputs the result into a local file. It's intended to be used in a release workflow when there is a desire to include a checksum file with the release artifacts.
The below example downloads release artifacts and generates checksums for the zip and tar archives before creating a new release.
