### Cache Composer Dependencies
If your project uses composer, you can persist composer's internal cache directory. Dependencies cached are loaded directly instead of downloading them while installation. The files cached are available across check-runs and will reduce the workflow execution time.
**Note:** Please do not cache `vendor` directory using `action/cache` as that will have side-effects.
