Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/nektos/act/issues/599

Describe feature

Act is now using $HOME/.actrc. In my opinion it shouldn't clutter home directory and should be in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/actrc or $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/act/config

I'm sorry for the necrobump, act saves all actions in the XDG_CONFIG_HOME/act, but it keeps creating .actrc in my home directory.

act saves all actions in the XDG_CONFIG_HOME/act,

I'm unsure what does that mean as we don't use XDG_CONFIG_HOME for anything but config

but it keeps creating .actrc in my home directory.

create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.actrc file and it shouldn't make it in home

I'm sorry, I meant to type XDG_CACHE_HOME/act

create $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/.actrc file and it shouldn't make it in home

Thanks, this seems to have worked.
