Cache issue in pnpm 7

See original GitHub issue

Description: Cache is not used in the action as expected. 0 package are reused by pnpm.

Run pnpm install --frozen-lockfile
Lockfile is up to date, resolution step is skipped
Progress: resolved 1, reused 0, downloaded 0, added 0
Packages: +22[8](https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/actions/runs/3262889396/jobs/5360721055#step:5:9)2

Action version: actions/setup-node@v3

Platform:

Ubuntu
macOS
Windows

Runner type:

Hosted
Self-hosted

Tools version: Nodejs 16 pnpm 7

Repro steps:
This is the public action who fail, you can find the code in the second link https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/actions/runs/3262889396/jobs/5360721055 https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/actions/runs/3262889396/workflow

Expected behavior: cache should make pnpm reuse package between run of the same job. The goal is to reduce build time and action usage by keeping cache of plugin between job ( who happen in every commit)

Actual behavior: not reused

hey @dmitry-shibanov thank you so much for your insights, I was able to resolve my issue by adding a cache step on the main branch before the CI on tag just here : https://github.com/Cap-go/capgo/blob/36b3f36d1d42954534ac98116f4a1ab6f0da4a41/.github/workflows/bump_version.yml#L36 It’s not ideal, since building each tag seems logical without building the main, but that have reduce my install time from 2 min to 9 sec ^^
