## Cache Version
Cache version is unique for a combination of compression tools(Gzip, Zstd, etc) and the path of cache, which may differ according to runner OS as well. If two caches have different versions, then they are identified as unique cache entries.
Example: Below example will create 3 unique caches with same keys.
```yaml
jobs:
build-linux:
runs-on: ubuntu-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- name: Cache Primes
id: cache-primes
uses: actions/cache@v3
with:
path: prime-numbers
key: primes
- name: Generate Prime Numbers
if: steps.cache-primes.outputs.cache-hit != 'true'
run: ./generate-primes.sh -d prime-numbers
- name: Cache Numbers
id: cache-numbers
uses: actions/cache@v3
with:
path: numbers
key: primes
- name: Generate Numbers
if: steps.cache-numbers.outputs.cache-hit != 'true'
run: ./generate-primes.sh -d numbers
build-windows:
runs-on: windows-latest
steps:
- uses: actions/checkout@v3
- name: Cache Primes
id: cache-primes
uses: actions/cache@v3
with:
path: prime-numbers
key: primes
- name: Generate Prime Numbers
if: steps.cache-primes.outputs.cache-hit != 'true'
run: ./generate-primes -d prime-numbers
