PHP 8.3 Support For Global Runners

On Monday, June 3 at 2:00 PM EDT we will be updating the GitHub Enterprise Global Runners to add support for PHP 8.3. We will also be removing support for PHP 8.0 as this runtime no longer receives active support or security updates and should ideally not be used in development or production environments.

Updates will be done in a rolling fashion to ensure high availability. Please update any workflows relying on PHP 8.0. If you must continue to use PHP 8.0 we ask that you do so using a self-hosted runner.

The following PHP binaries will be available following the upgrade and can be referenced in workflows:

/usr/bin/php # PHP 8.3 
/usr/bin/php8.2
/usr/bin/php8.1

This update will not impact the GitHub Enterprise instance, except that the global runner being updated will temporarily be unavailable to take on new jobs.

Questions regarding this change can be directed to github@help.ncsu.edu.
