説明

Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

https://github.com/github/docs/blob/main/content/actions/hosting-your-own-runners/managing-self-hosted-runners-with-actions-runner-controller/deploying-runner-scale-sets-with-actions-runner-controller.md

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

Reading the helm values for the gha-runner-scale-set chart, the helm chart supports authenticating via github app, which is a more secure and production grade method of configuring ARC than using a user's personal access token.

The docs should be updated to nudge people towards the more proper way of doing things.

Additional information

I know github is trying to phase out classic PATs so it was unexpected to see official docs instructing to use a PAT, especially when other methods are supported.
