GitHub Actions cache — Scope
Scope is a key used to identify the cache object. By default, it is set to buildkit. If you build multiple images, each build will overwrite the cache of the previous, leaving only the final cache. To preserve the cache for multiple builds, you can specify this scope attribute with a specific name.

Scope is a key used to identify the cache object. By default, it is set to buildkit. If you build multiple images, each build will overwrite the cache of the previous, leaving only the final cache.
To preserve the cache for multiple builds, you can specify this scope attribute with a specific name. In the following example, the cache is set to the image name, to ensure each image gets its own cache
GitHub's cache access restrictions, still apply. Only the cache for the current branch, the base branch and the default branch is accessible by a workflow.
