GitHub action to set up GCC

Set up GCC

This GitHub action sets up GCC in your workflow run.

1. Installs either 32-bit or 64-bit GCC on either Ubuntu or Cygwin.
2. For installing GCC on Windows please see my action setup-mingw.

Use it in your workflow like this:

- name: Set up GCC
  uses: egor-tensin/setup-gcc@v1
  with:
    platform: x64

• x64 is the default value for the platform parameter and can be omitted. Use x86 if you want to build 32-bit binaries.
• Set the cygwin parameter to 1 to set up GCC inside an existing Cygwin installation (you can set up Cygwin itself using my action setup-cygwin).
• cc and c++ executables are set up, pointing to the gcc and g++ executables. Disable this by setting the cc parameter to 0.
