• @ExperimentsInHonesty @t-will-gillis I agree with the need for this. For example, we have several CodeQL alerts now for code that does not appear to be in production; for example #6670 and it is a waste of time dealing with these alerts. But I have two questions about this ER:

1. Why does it have a dependency on the homepage launch?
2. What is the strategy to determine which files are not part of the Jekyll build?

@roslynwythe

Why does it have a dependency on the homepage launch?

Because I am concerned that something has crept into the main branch that is only being used by the feature branch, so I want to make sure it happens after the homepage launch, when we no longer have that open feature branch.

What is the strategy to determine which files are not part of the Jekyll build?

I don't know, I think that is for the person who works on the issue to determine.
