That’s an excellent point. How can you tell if the CI system uses caching, other than waiting for a github outage to notice something broke?

Many CI systems provide a build log, do they not? Look for a “git fetch” in it instead of a “git clone”.

Check in documentation, or when in doubt, run a job, redirect GitHub to 127.0.0.1 in /etc/hosts on the CI server, and run that job again.
