I'm sorry to say but this is extremely slow.
The first experiments on tern (quite heavy package with just a few revdeps) keeps timing out at 1h runtime of the script-execution time. This includes ~20mins on installing required packages (we can potentially cache it). The remaining time is consumed by revdep itself (plus our overhead but this is minimal - just a prints for now). We were able to check just 3 out of 5 revdeps whereas locally everything (!) completes under 10 mins!
I think that it's because GHA does not support parallelization implemented there. The only parameter we can control is num_workers. When set to 4 then it just hangs. Then I experimented with 1 and 2 value but cannot really see the difference. I came into a conclusion that this is simply not used from within GHA.
How this is being implemented? revdep is creating multiple processes in the background and do a infinite loop pinging its statuses. You can check it here

Let's try to cache required libs and see the difference but currently I have bad feelings about it...

Can we also add the short tagging workflow?

Yes, I believe it's there (but I placed it in a wrong directory, now it should be fine).
