ci: cancel superseded runs; skip docs PRs#440
Merged
Conversation
Two workflow tweaks aimed at the partial-miss tier (~10-13min) build that dominates everyday PR iteration: 1. Concurrency cancellation - in-progress runs on the same PR branch are cancelled when a new push arrives. main pushes are not cancelled (cancel-in-progress is gated on github.event_name == 'pull_request') so each merged commit still gets its own verification pass. 2. paths-ignore on the Build and Test trigger - PRs that touch only markdown files or Docs/ skip the full build/test cycle entirely. PR Validation (villint) keeps its current trigger so doc PRs still pass through linting. If 'Build and Test VillageSQL' is configured as a required status check on main, doc-only PRs may report it as missing rather than passing - will need a no-op fallback job in that case.

Description
Two workflow tweaks aimed at the partial-miss tier (~10-13min) build that dominates everyday PR iteration:
Concurrency cancellation - in-progress runs on the same PR branch are cancelled when a new push arrives. main pushes are not cancelled (cancel-in-progress is gated on github.event_name == 'pull_request') so each merged commit still gets its own verification pass.
paths-ignore on the Build and Test trigger - PRs that touch only markdown files or Docs/ skip the full build/test cycle entirely. PR Validation (villint) keeps its current trigger so doc PRs still pass through linting.
If 'Build and Test VillageSQL' is configured as a required status check on main, doc-only PRs may report it as missing rather than passing - will need a no-op fallback job in that case.
