+#
+# In TypeScript actions, `dist/` is a special directory. When you reference
+# an action with the `uses:` property, `dist/index.js` is the code that will be
+# run. For this project, the `dist/index.js` file is transpiled from other
+# source files. This workflow ensures the `dist/` directory contains the
+# expected transpiled code.
+#
+# If this workflow is run from a feature branch, it will act as an additional CI
+# check and fail if the checked-in `dist/` directory does not match what is
+# expected from the build.
