The version of pnpm is not being retrieved from the packageManager field in the package.json. about action-setup HOT 6 OPEN

^pnpm is an invalid prefix.

yes, using "packageManager": "pnpm@^8.6.1", works, but there is an issue with a pattern matching error in VSC "String does not match the pattern of "(npm|pnpm|yarn)@\d+.\d+.\d+(-.+)?"", I'll look into it. Thanks for your reply

It seems that our action supporting version range is a non-standard extension. The spec seems the require the exact version (packageManager itself is still experimental after all). And the regex in VS Code schema fails to exclude invalid initial characters.

This behavior makes Dependabot failing on my project

i put this in my package.json
"packageManager": "pnpm@^8.6.1",

My github action is working quite well, by detecting the good version automatically.

But dependantBot fails :(

This is the error in the output logs of Dependabot
updater | 2023/11/13 07:51:02 ERROR <job_748887009> Usage Error: Invalid package manager specification in package.json; expected a semver version

So I rollbacked and put my pnpm version hardcoded in my github actions :(

@Potof-TheOz Caret isn't supported by corepack either. So I guess our unintentional extension was a mistake.
