Overview

This is a command line version of our github action get-language-versions.

This script will fetch up-to-date data on the latest version(s) available on Github Actions for a given set of languages. It does this by first identifying the latest release (if the version source is in GitHub), and then extracting the information from the versions file of that latest release.

It will also compare this to the End-Of-Life (EOL) data for that language to ensure that you are not being given EOL versions (unless you specifically as the tool to give them to you).
