 ### free-hosted-runner-disk-space
 
 Removes unnecessary folders and files from a GHA [hosted runner](https://docs.github.com/en/actions/using-github-hosted-runners/about-github-hosted-runners), and if that is not enough, allows to manipulate and utilize unused memory partitions. This action might be useful when we run jobs which require a lot of disk space.
